Justin was a distant cousin of mine, we have only met a few times at family reunions. Either way, family is family and I am deeply sorry to those who knew him well. There is nothing worse than losing a loved one, especially one so young. I am coincidentally the same age as he was, 18, so i could not imagine what his family must be going through right now. May he rest in perfect paradise. My deepest condolences.

I have a very clear memory of visiting Justin after he was born. I had never seen a baby with so much blond hair.

I offer my most sincere condolences to Geoff, Janette and their families.

May you and your loved ones be blessed and comforted with all you need to cope during this time of mourning. And may you find love, joy and peace in your memories of Justin’s life.
