Published in the Times Herald-Record on 1/2/2005. Justin was a senior at Monticello High School. His life was taken soon after a single car crash on his way home, just miles from his house in Rock Hill, NY. He was only 17 years old. He was survived by his parents, his brother Jeff and his sister Tonya. Along with many Aunts & Uncles, Cousins and friends.

In 2004, Monticello High School lost 4 students from Automobile accidents. This was in a short 6 month period. This memorial website for Justin is not only to allow him to forever live on through all of us but to portray the message that YOU need to drive safely. As well as to take responsibility for others in your vehicle. Although Justin was driving by himself, speed was a factor in his accident. Justin got into an accident on Dec. 30th and was flown to Westchester Medical Center where he passed away on Dec. 31.

Although some say that time heals all wounds, this is not true for those close to such an amazing young boy. He had a life to live, and it was cut too short.

If anyone else has anything to add about Justin please leave a message on his memorial && I will try to add it to here.
