I am at a loss for words, Mr & Mrs, Shoemaker I cannot describe the amount of sympathy I have for you and, your family; especially Justin's young ones. My heart bleeds for all of you. Justin was an amazing friend. Throughout the years he was always there when I needed someone to talk to, he always was blunt and, to the point making sure to never sugar coat things for me. He was someone I could count on when I needed a hand or, a shoulder to cry on. Although we lost touch these last couple years, he always made a point to message and, ensure things on my end were okay. He loved and, cared for everyone with his whole heart, being so proud of his children and, always showing off his little girl through pictures when I would run into him. I could go on forever writing about how good of a person he was. I am terribly sorry for your loss, I still cannot believe it is true.
Gone but, never will be forgotten, Justin. You rest easy, until we meet again. xoxoxo

Barb & Ray so saddened to hear about your loss of Justin, a young man with a good heart and so much of life still ahead of him, cut short. I enjoyed the time with Justin back a few years ago as we worked together to help him deal with the unfortunate issues that came into his life. My thought and prayers are with you at this difficult time. May God give you comfort and peace!

Justin was one of the nicest people i knew. He always made me laugh and every time we seen eachother he would always say "if theres anything i can do for you just let me know" even if he was having a hard time himself. He was the kind of guy that would give you the shirt off his back if he thought you needed it. He was super proud of his kids cause they were all he talked about. I hadn't seen him in a few yrs but it sure is sad to know i wont see him again. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Justin lived with us when for awhile when he was a teenager. One of my best memories was one Halloween he was dancing in the living room with his girlfriend and the whole neighbourhood could see as the blinds were up. He was having the time of his life. It was a real, happy moment we all got a great laugh. He had big brown eyes that told stories as you looked at him. So sorry for your loss. I can't imagine your heartbreak . Much love to your family.
