Condolences

My heart goes out to you and your family. As a friend and former co worker I will always remember how you glowed. May Justin’s memory be a blessing.

Alli, I am so sorry to hear about Justin’s passing. I really enjoyed his company. My heart goes out to you and the entire family. Sally

My deepest sympathies to the family. Justin had a confidence about himself since I met him in 4th grade. Sometimes so cocky and feisty, so it was no surprise when he became a lawyer. Justin was someone that made you believe in yourself and taught me to be more confident in my beliefs. Even though through adulthood we only chatted via fb, he is someone that always had your back, always loved to debate and have a good conversation about worldly topics. This was a life cut too short. To his wife, kids and his beloved pup, you are all in my prayers. Once a Tiger, always a Tiger. With love
