Our history with Justin was brief, however, the kindness that he extended to us was profound and we anticipated many years of friendship. Our sense of loss and sadness is not to be compared with his family or those who have a long history. We extend our deepest sympathies to Justin's family and friends.

Kevin and Michelle I can't even imagine your loss. I am so sorry for your loss. Although, I haven't lost a child I did recently lose my husband. I am Praising God that Tom was Baptized in 2017 and I saw that Justin was Baptized June 23rd so, I know Justin has seen Jesus Face to Face as has my husband. Justin is Gone to young but, try and take comfort knowing he is in Heaven. Praying for your entire family.

Kevin, Michelle & Family,
I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious boy. I remember him fondly from my days of subbing at Conway Christian. He was always smiling, mischievous and well mannered. Your lights are much more dim but his is glowing brighter than ever standing in the light of our Savior. I pray that God can calm your hearts in the days ahead as you try and navigate this horrific loss. Your community loves and embraces you and lifts you all in prayer.
