Justin graduated Aiken High School in 2008 and graduated Aiken Technical College in 2015 with an Associate of Applied Science in HVAC/R Technology. Justin had a passion for music and was known to be a music enthusiast by all his family and friends especially of The Grateful Dead and Sublime, which he also enjoyed collecting memorabilia for. Justin also loved to cook and bake and enjoyed making food for his loved ones especially cookies around Christmas time which his son would claim were the best cookies in the world. Justin always felt happiest in nature and always loved to spend time outdoors. He was a deeply kind and empathetic person; he would give his last dollar to help someone in need or just lend an ear if that’s what you needed. He was a deeply joyful person and loved to dance and sing while he did everyday things, he loved to make people smile and laugh and wasn’t afraid to be goofy to do so. Justin will be deeply missed by all of his family and friends.
