Justin, you will be missed greatly. We were always proud of you of all your accomplishments. There is so much to say but words could never fill the void we feel. We always knew you as a little boy full of energy, then you grew up and exceled so fast and grew up to fast. But your grandmother (Sandra Ellis)really loves you and wish you were still here to tease her about you going to russia.

I am so saddened by the news of Justin's passing. I remember meeting him for the first time when he was just 9 years old. I remember driving him to his senior prom with my friend because her daughter was his date. He was a very special young man and he will be missed by all that knew him. My thoughts & prayers go out to his family.

I traveled to Ireland with Justin last may. He was always such a fun guy to be around and such a good friend. Everyone was so close on that trip, like a second family and I know we will all miss Justin very much.

I had the pleasure of serving with Doty for the past two years. He would have been a great officer but better yet, he was a great friend. I will miss you Doty as will all of the medics from HHB 2/116.

You were such an awesome person, I wish I could have gotten to know you more. You would have been an amazing Officer and even though I didn't know you well, I'm sure you will be deeply missed by the ones who loved you.

Justin was a student in my computer class while he was here at PPHS. I am deeply, deeply saddened to hear this news. I recall Justin as being a stellar student and a wonderful young man. This tragedy just breaks my heart. Before he graduated, he came back to my class to say goodbye to me. I will never forget this wonderful young man. I am so very sorry.
