Ray Lee Justen - Funeral Fund
Donation protected
I am setting up this account for my sister & her Family with the upcoming funeral expenses for there son.
Ray Lee Justen, 25, of Palmer, Alaska, passed away on Saturday, October 29, 2016, in a tragic plane accident in the Knik River Valley. Ray was a lifelong Alaskan, born in Anchorage, Feb 19,1991, to Ted and Bea Justen. He was raised in the Mat-Su Valley and graduated from Palmer High School in 2009.
Ray volunteered at the Butte Fire Dept, Station 21, and also worked as a fire fighter at Endicott Station. He enlisted in the Army directly out of high school. He was employed at Equipment Source Inc. of Anchorage, AK, and prior to that he was employed at Endicott Oil Field with Hill Corp/CH2MHill.
Ray’s true passion was flying and living the Alaskan lifestyle, living his life to the fullest, sharing his passion for living with anyone fortunate enough to be in his presence. He loved his Cessna 172, his pride & joy, which he referred to as 53E. Flying was his true freedom and escape. He grew up enjoying the outdoors, testing the limits of anything with a motor including dirt bikes, 4-wheelers, and snow machines. He was a true Alaskan. He had the biggest heart, accomplished much in his short life; everything he set his mind to he made a reality. Spending time with his family and loved ones was very important to him. The last year of his life he thoroughly enjoyed adventuring with the light of his life, Kristina, whom he absolutely adored. He was incredibly loyal, loving, kind, a true giver. He was always happy and exciting to be around, touching the lives of all who knew him.
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. Any help is greatly appreciated.
