Grew up in the same neighborhood together in South City, my fondest memories playing tag at Dundee park and riding bikes at Serra Vista in the the old neighborhood gang. I’ll never forget the first time i ever heard the term ooooohhhh laaaaaaa laaaaaa was when my father hired a dancer for his Grandfathers birthday and my brother, Justin, and i all peeped through the door, must of been 8 or 9 at the time. Goodtimes,
God Bless
-RIP Justin

I watched him grow from an insolent young boy into a beautiful, sensitine man. Generous, loving and kind, he was a special human being who lit up each morning with his laughter and joy. He will be missed by all at 187. My deepest condolences to his family.

I was away camping with no reception on my phone to find out about this terrible news. The day after his passing I was at the local store and I saw a guy outside who looked exactly like justin… He was in moto gear sitting on his bike getting ready to ride off into the sunset. I thought to myself is that Justin??? We made eye contact and I figured since he didn’t say hi that it wasn’t him. When I came home the next day my phone had service again and I found out the news… all I could think about is how weird it was that I saw him the day before… I truly believe it was him and he is at peace doing exactly what he enjoyed most. See you later my friend

I worked with him at Trader Joe’s Milbrae and South City.. He was a good kid who became a good man. He was a good dirty bike rider…. RIP Justin…
