Justin was a son, brother, uncle, grandson and friend. A truly special human being that left a trail of belly laughs and bright eyed smiles in his wake.
Justin had a magnetic personality. He was deeply intuitive, empathetic and funny. He could read the room in a heartbeat, and knew exactly how each person felt. Even as a child, he always knew when a loved one was having a bad day. And he knew exactly what to say to make that person feel better.
No matter the age, education or income level, Justin could make anyone feel comfortable, and had an extreme sense of altruism. His million dollar smile lit up the room, and those eyes… His eyes danced like the morning sun. Even in hard times, he knew exactly how to make people laugh in stitches with his jokes and incredible impressions.
Most people knew Justin as a gifted athlete. But what was truly special about Justin was how he used his athletic gifts to help children. When he coached children's tennis in high school, he was much more than a coach. After each lesson, those tiny tennis players would run up to Justin and hug him around his knees. They were simply beaming with confidence and joy.
As the years went by, he embraced his entrepreneurship, and had dreams to pursue an insurance and real estate career to follow his parent's footsteps. In addition, he had extraordinary talents in art and acting, as well as an incredible voice. He loved music and good food, especially sushi. And of course, anything with cake batter and rainbow sprinkles.
Justin may have had only 30 years on this planet. But he had an impact. He never missed an opportunity to express his love to his family and friends. And daily, he called or texted his parents "Love you".
We love you and miss you Jusy J. You will always be in our hearts and we will see you again.
