Justin attended 2 years of Air Force ROTC at Oak Ridge High School and 2 years at College Park High School in The Woodlands, Texas. Justin went on to serve 4 ½ years in the United States Army 82nd Airborne, with 2 tours active duty in Iraq.
Justin was a kind and loving man that loved God and our Country; fishing, being outdoors, cooking, barbecuing, and building things with his hands. But most of all, being with his family, friends, and his beloved dog June.
