We want to start by expressing our deepest gratitude for the outpouring of support. Your donations have eased an unexpected burden, and we are truly thankful. For those who wish to pay their last respects to Justin, visitation will be held this Friday from 12–4 PM ET at Verheyden Funeral Home in Grosse Pointe Park, MI.

On behalf of our family, I’m creating this fundraiser to help lay Justin Mayer to rest with the dignity and love he deserves. Justin passed away unexpectedly last night, and our family is heartbroken by the suddenness of this loss.

Although Justin had been injured on the job and had been dealing with some health issues, nothing was life-threatening, and his passing came without warning. Because he had been unable to work for some time, he did not have life insurance or funds set aside for emergencies. We are asking for help to cover his funeral and final arrangements during this incredibly difficult time.

Our goal is to provide a simple, respectful service to honor Justin’s life and say goodbye surrounded by love. Funds from this GoFundMe will go directly toward funeral and final expenses.

Any amount, no matter how small, truly helps and is deeply appreciated. If you’re not in a position to give, simply sharing this page is also a meaningful way to support us.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and prayers as we navigate this unexpected loss. Your support means more than we can express and helps our family give Justin a peaceful and honorable farewell.

—with gratitude,

Our family
