My sincere sympathy to you, Tracy and Carol, upon the loss of your son.
Carol and Tracy and family. There really are no words that can take that pain and sorrow away. Just know that there are many people that care and love you. I’m so sorry for your loss and thinking of you at this time in this time of your sorrow and heartache.
Even though I did not know Justin, my heart goes out to you and your family. I lost my 23 yr old son 3 years ago in May. I can tell you that the grief does ease as you absorb the pain of losing him and adjust to a life without him. Someone wrote that, immediately, grief is like battling eighty foot waves that seem to swallow you up, but over time, the waves become lesser and more and more infrequent and there is a recovery period in between. You will forever miss him, but he will always be with you. Creating commemorations in his memory helped me a lot because I want him remembered. My Hayden sounds very much like your Justin…..so kind-hearted and good with children and dogs. Dear Family, May God hold you in His loving arms as He welcomes Justin into His Kingdom.
Carol & Family,
My heart goes out to you during this very diffcult time. Cherish the memories you have of Justin. He was definitly loved and will be missed greatly. Thinking of you now and the days ahead. May God bless you and give you peace.
With Love,
Katie

Justin,
Your heart warming smile and personality will always stay with me. You were such a huge part of my adolescent years and the memories we made together will hold a place in my heart forever. We were two young teenagers just learning and growing with one another. I’m grateful for the time that we had and the love we shared. I pray you’re finally at peace with yourself and whatever you had hanging over your shoulders. You’re home now with your maker and know you’re looking down on everyone and smiling.
Dear Carol and family,
I was so sad to hear the sad news of your dear son and brother Justin’s passing. No matter the circumstances, losing your loved one is the worst thing to endure. He was loved and will be missed by those who knew him. I will be with you in my thoughts and prayers during this terrible time. So proud of Allyson speaking out like she did. Love to you all.
