I wrote this and read it at Justin's funeral
Dear Justin
During the past few days we've often wondered why
All we have are memories to help the time pass by.
We love you and we miss you; we aren't sure why you went.
We've thought about the good times, all the times we spent.
We wish we could have helped you before it was to late
To be the Justin that we knew before that twist of fate.
We wish we had you with us to laugh with and to hug.
We wish we could have pulled you out of the deep hole that you dug.
You had your life ahead of you; your family is brand new.
It isn't fair your moments with them were shortand far too few.
We will always remember the good times, but we can't forget the bad.
We have our sorrow, we have our grief and some of us are mad.
But we will all forgive you, as hard as that may be.
And we know you'll watch over us, all our lives you'll see.
So Justin, goodbye for now, our hearts will someday mend
When we see our son, brother, nephew, cousin, daddy, love and friend.
