Justin’s eternal bemused kindness, nurturing, and generosity. The untold number of times Justin has spontaneously provided exactly what I needed. A magical, wonderful man being.

His beautiful big brown eyes and megawatt smile as he handed me plates of food through a little rectangular hole when we both worked at The Tak. He cooked, I served. We both had a laugh:) Thinking of Justin today and all his best buds as you gather to celebrate his life today. Hope to make a summer gathering.

He was one of the kindest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting getting to know. He once posed as my brother to keep a creep away at a season end party. I’ll never forget him for that. His positivity, warmth and gentle spirit will live on in those the knew him. ✨️ 🙌💗

Your smile, enthusiasm and joy will never be forgotten. You had such a presence. It was a pleasure being in your company, having you a part of the community and watching you feel the music. You will be missed by many.

Justin and I are woven together by the Cortes community. Memories range many ages and stages, but there was always a smile and a sense of warmth and humility in my interactions with Justin. It is a gift to grow up within such a wonderful web. Justin physical presence in that is so missed and I hold my many memories of him on a beach, in a boat, playing music, dancing and around a dinner table dear.

I never saw Justin without a big smile on his face. He lightened the mood and brought laughter and a bright spirit to wherever he was.
