    I went to school with Justin. He was always smart, funny, and always quick with a comeback if anybody tried to make fun of him. Heck, he was really good at making me laugh as he made fun of me! Words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss. He was a great person and I am sorry he is no longer here on this earth. He will be missed. Prayers for your family!

    I was very distraught hear of justins passing. We had history him and I. I think i might have been his first girlfriend. 🙂 more so, he was a great friend. I thought of him often over the years. He facebooked me just days before his death. It was a nice surprise after so many years. I missed my chance to say a final, ” hey wats up dude?” I loved justin very much and my heart breaks for his family. He’s in the lords hands now. Tell him i say hi God. Ill never forget u Justin (Sla). Love rachel!
