Help Us Lay Justin to Rest

Our family is grieving the unexpected loss of our beloved brother, Justin, who passed away on February 14th at just 29 years old.

Justin was one of the most loving souls you could meet. He had a gentle heart, a warm smile, and a way of making people feel cared for simply by being around him. He was a proud and devoted uncle who adored his nieces and nephews, and he never missed an opportunity to make them laugh or feel special.

Justin experienced deep loss early in life when we lost our mother to cancer when he was only 21 years old. That heartbreak stayed with him, and although he struggled in the years that followed, he never stopped trying to find healing and hope. Over the past several years, Justin courageously fought for sobriety and worked hard to rebuild his life.

He loved Jesus and carried a genuine faith in the Lord. He believed in grace, forgiveness, and second chances. Justin also had a sweet and playful side — he loved anything sugary and could always be counted on to reach for dessert first.

Tragically, Justin’s life was taken by fentanyl. Our hearts are broken, but we want to honor him with dignity, love, and peace.

Our mother has already passed, and the financial responsibility for Justin’s final arrangements now falls to his siblings — myself, Rachael, and our younger brother. We are raising funds to cover the cost of Justin’s cremation, which totals $1,006. We still have costs for the family burial plot/ celebration of life and headstone. So any help with his cremation is greatly appreciated.

We are humbly asking for any small donation to help us lay our brother to rest. No amount is too small, and if you are unable to give, sharing this fundraiser or keeping our family in your prayers means just as much.

Thank you for helping us honor Justin’s life and giving him the peaceful farewell he deserves.

With gratitude and love,

Rachael & Family
