Justin was a 1994 graduate of Marshfield High School and later graduated from Vatterott College as a draftsman.  He was a member of Holy Trinity Catholic Church and had a lifelong faith in God.

Justin was a partner with his Dad in a home building business for several years and also drew house plans for many other builders and individuals.  Later on he enjoyed being a successful breeder of silver Labrador Retrievers.  He was very patriotic as could be witnessed by the large American flag always proudly flying in his front yard.  Justin also loved local history and spent his last few years researching and compiling the history of the family farm and was in the process of writing a book, which the family hopes to finish for him.
