As a son, Justin Thomas has been one of my parents greatest gifts. He is dependable, responsible, independent, caring, forgiving, loving, thoughtful and brought so many happy memories. At a very young age, my parents saw in Justin a heart of gold. He was naturally born with a compassionate heart. They will always remember Justin's sweetest words as a young kid when he saw the man size statue of Jesus Christ with lacerations and blood “we will bring you band-aids”. Justin never fails to ask how they are, how’s everything, and that he loved them very much. He demonstrated compassion towards the family, eased any worries, always offered support and assistance, fulfilled his share of duties and most importantly, he made them laugh, feel loved and special all the time.
