"For several years Justin attended 4 Elements Earth Education in the Pine Barrens of New Jersey. Most recently he was involved in the Teen Leadership Program where he had fun running free and practicing the ancient arts of tracking, wilderness survival and natural awareness.
Justin was known for his quiet and humble nature, sense of humor, sharp intellect, and maturity beyond his years. He was a beloved son and a loyal friend. Justin will remain forever in our hearts and minds, and continue to shine his light upon us." excerpt from Justin's Obituary
