Hello this is Kevin a friend of Justin please let me know what happened. I was just with him on Tuesday. I thought he was doing much better. I have not known Justin long but he was a great friend. He was there when I was not doing well. He stayed with me for a whole week. I am going to miss him as well as all of you.

My condolences and prayers to the family. Justin was a great person and a great friend who will be sorrily missed. I will miss hanging out with him and “ catching up” about old friends etc. I will miss his starting conversations with “quiet as kept. “ Going to his house this time of year with all of the Christmas decorations will be missed.

Justin was younger than I am. Through our knowing one another we came to realize we grew up in the same place, went to the same schools, had a lot of the same teachers and knew a lot of the same people.

Having gotten to know Justin I also feel he was of a kind and relaxed nature. I don’t recall him having a mean bone in his body. One to take the “high road”

Rest In Peace friend

I am at a complete loss for words. I will truly miss the conversation and counsel that I have received so many times over. Back in early 2021, Justin prevented me from making a ‘terrible’ mistake and had it not been for his wise words over dinner, I would have followed through with something that was not meant for me.

People are placed in your path for a reason, and Justin, unbeknownst to him, saved my life and placed me on a better path. For that, and so many other reasons, I will forever be grateful that our paths had crossed.

Rest easy my friend…

My best work friend is gone. You were my brother, a shoulder to cry on, someone I loved very deeply. I enjoy us going “ Eat , Eat” , cooking at your house, making you waffles for you, and your angelic, laugh and wonderful spirit. I will never forget your voice, and how good it felt when you called me. You always looked out for me at work and we shared very many laughs together. Always giving back to everyone you know. Love you always RIP Justin

Man oh man! Who am I going to be foolish and raggedy with now? You were something else…aaaayyyyyeeeee! I love you more than you will know. I thought we had time. I couldn’t wait for you to come back to work. You went from co-worker to friend to family. Nobody could call me Sista Watts like you! Thank you for everything that you were to me and for me. I miss you already! Hug my boy for me and tell him how much I miss and love him.

Until I see you again,
Your Sista Watts aka Bridget Watts

Justin would light up the room. What a ray of sunshine and a smile of hope. When I, “Big Momma” first met Justin at LGR, it was easy to remember his name. He said, “just remember,…just in time, just in case.” We will all remember. Acts24:15 “And I have hope towards God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection…”

My name is Moses Hobbs.I worked with Justin and his brother at Taco Bell during their High School days. Justin was always the one that made each day worth coming he always had something funny to tell me and even though I was having a bad day he said something that would make me laugh. Rest In Heaven young brother.

Ever since I heard of your passing I have been trying to find the right words to say. We had so many plans but time got the best of us. I just hope you knew how much I love you. Thank you for loving my kids like they were your own. Thank you for your laughs and your vibrant smile that lit up every room you walked into. We are going to miss you so much! The neighborhood isn’t going to be the same without you! Rest in heaven my sweet friend!

Words can’t describe the sadness I feel when I think about losing you. I know you’re in a better place and watching over is with dad, I am filled with sadness. I love you and I will truly miss my other half, my best friend and the guy who helped me change my life.

Love your twin brother,

Ah, my friend…..I cannot adequately express the profound loss we are all feeling. You were among the first of my friends as I was navigating coming out. We enjoyed a friendship that I wish had continued on for many more years, but it was not to be.

To Justin’s family, I pray for comfort and peace. I can’t imagine how deeply this loss is for you….because I have only known him a few years, and it sucks. Many hugs and love to all of you. And Justin, thank you for adding so much love and happiness to my life. I will miss you terribly!

I will keep your family in my thoughts and wish them all the ability to find comfort in so many memories that I know all of them have. Rest easy Justin.

I will never forget the first time I ever met you. You were so friendly and welcoming. I never considered you as a friend. Only family. You were my ear. My shoulder. My heart. Thank you for all the laughs and love.

Justin your smile could seriously make the sun jealous!! You were the easiest friend I ever made. You forced me to smile until it became easy for me. You touched so many many people! You were a counselor, friend, and confidant to so many!! I’m inclined to believe it is not by chance that I met you! I’m heartbroken for your family and have so many fond thoughts of both you and Jason!! I will miss that smile, and your laughter, that sparkle in your eyes and especially those hugs!! Jason I’m so so sorry for your loss. My condolences to the family and my prayers for strength, peace, and comfort will be with you all!! My God…you will be missed!!

Justin I can’t believe you’re gone. You and I have known each other forever. I am going to miss you so much. We shared a great life together I knew when i needed someone you was always there for me.

My friend I will always love you and keep you close in my heart God Bless You??????

Justin was one of my good friends in high school, seen him a hand full of times after that. But his friendship meant the world to me and I will always remember one thing that he told he and wrote in my yearbook, he told me if you fall pick yourself up and dust yourself off and TRY AGAIN. Love you Justin, see you on the other side.

Justin, I always thought of you as being such a great guy. You were always smiling and giving words of encouragement or sharing your sense of humor. We hadn’t talked much in the last few years but I often thought of you. To Justin’s family, I’m so sorry for your loss.
