Justin Barile Obituary

I knew Justin back during my middle school and high school years. Justin was a great guy and always fun to be around. I remember watching his band play after school and how good Justin was at playing the drums. Justin, you will be greatly missed, I will never forget you. My thoughts go out to all of his family during this time.

We did not have the pleasure of meeting Justin or his mother, but heard many nice things about them through our good friends and neighbors Lee and Barbara. We also join with the family and friends of Justin and Cheryl in expressing our deepest sympathy and sorrow on the loss of juch a young man. Our prayers also join with everyone in hoping that the parents as well as the grandparents find the strength and comfort to hopefully help in healing the huge hole that has been left in their hearts.
Rest in Peace Justin!!
Love to everyone!

Cheryl, David, Lee and Barbara,
You have my sincere condolences on the loss of your Justin. The news of his sudden and untimely death is so very tragic and heartbreaking. One can only hope that time and fond memories will help to ease the pain. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you grieve.

Justin, You can't even imagine how much I miss you! You will always be in my heart for the rest of this life and whatever comes after. You were so special to me even through the tough times. You had so many family and friends that loved and cared about you and have shown their support for you and our family. I only hope you can feel the love that we all have for you and always will. You left us way too soon but you will never be forgotten. I know you're at peace now and that gives me alot of comfort. I love you so very much!!
Mom

Staci sent me this poem which really touched my heart after you left us.

He Only Took My Hand
"Last night while I was trying to sleep,
My son's voice I did hear
I opened my eyes and looked around,
But he did not appear.
He said: "Mom you've got to listen,
You've got to understand
God didn't take me from you, mom
He only took my hand.
When I called out in pain that night,
The instant that I died,
He reached down and took my hand,
And pulled me to His side.
He pulled me up and saved me
From the misery and pain.
My body was hurt so badly inside,
I could never be the same.
My search is really over now,
I've found happiness within,
All the answers to my empty dreams
And all that might have been.
I love you all and miss you so,
And I'll always be nearby.
My body's gone forever,
But my spirit will never die!
And so, you must all go on now,
Live one day at a time.
Just understand-
God did not take me from you,
He only took my hand."

Justin visited our home across the street from his Grandparents. He was fun and funny maintaining that he was Japanese.I learned later the snl connection but Justine with a gregarious smile stayed in character that night, and cracked us all up.

Cheryl,
I remember Justin as the first boy who ever wanted to marry me. Mind you he was only 3 years old and I was 9 years his senior, but it still made me feel good. I still feel good knowing that I made that much of an impact on his young life at that point and I will always cherish my memories of my times with him as a child. I am so sorry for your loss and so blessed to have known him.

Justin,

You left the party way to early for all of us! Everyone has been grieving and crying, not because of what happened to you, but because of what happened to us. We lost you for the rest of our live's here but we'll always have you in our hearts forever! Your Mom Loved you so much, and tried everything to help you, her biggest comfort now is knowing how hard you tried and that your in a better place and your not suffering anymore. We'll always keep a place on the couch for you whenever we get together in case you want to come down and visit us. Loving your Mom so much makes me feel like I lost a son too! Love You!

In studying orcas and dophpins in recent years, people who encounter them in the wild usually talk of the pureness of the relationship between themselves and these cetaceans. They suggest these magical encounters are one of the purest relationships in life - they want nothing from you and you want nothing from them. They just want to BE with you.

Knowing and loving Justin was alot like that. I remember him as a child how he would just come sit by you to enjoy what you were doing - didn't need to bring something to show you - he just loved unconditionally and he just made you feel like you were so special. He was such a unique and soft spoken angel.

Justin, I am a better person for having loved you. I won't forget you in this lifetime or the next ones. You will be missed tremendously!

Always and Forever,

Cheryl and family - Though I never met Justin, I want you to know that my prayers are with you all duing this time of sorrow. Hold tight to your fondest memories - I'm sure that Justin's memory will be carried in your hearts forever. God Bless You All.

Cheryl, David, Lee and Barbara,
My prayers and thoughts are with you, I am so sorry for your loss. I remember playing with Justin on 4th of July many times in the old Antrim neighborhood. He is now in the Lord's arms. God Bless.

Justin was indeed a GREAT guy. We grew up together and were best friends from about 4th-8th grade. I have so many great memories of him. Playing down by the train tracks by the old 7-11 in C Springs, getting in trouble after school... but mostly playing music together. Funny that he loved to play the drums so much that we actually nick named him just "drummer." Music is my career now, and as someone who was lucky enough to share and play a lot of music with Justin, I will keep him always in my thoughts as someone who helped shape my life as a musician, but much more than that, helped me to know the meaning of friendship. Love you brother. My thoughts and prayers are with you in the Barile family.

Dear daughter Cheryl and grandson David,
I know David remembers his and Justin's visits to grandma and grandpa's house in Huntington Beach, California when grandma would make them grilled cheese sandwiches. They would eat those sandwiches faster than grandma could make them. There was the time grandma insisted that Justin, David, and their two Johnson cousins, Devin and Tyler go to Penney's for a portrait. I have always cherished that photo of our four grandsons. As Justin and David got older, we would all go, including Devin and Tyler, to Ruby's on the pier in Huntington Beach. David said there is a Ruby's in Colorado but it would not be the same going there as the one on the pier. Justin was quite the "drummer boy". He will be missed but never forgotten. his memory will be with us always.
I love you Justin! Grandma

I didn't know Justin but I did know his mother when she was a child. There can be nothing so devastating as losing a child. My sincere condolences to Cheryl and her family. God Bless (an old Antrim neighbor)

Dear Cheryl and family,

Dear Cheryl and David and Family,
We were so very sorry to hear about Justin. Being next door to Barb and Lee, we remember Justin most from the 4th of July block parties and the kids playing hide and seek at night. He was always such a great kid and our hearts ache for you. Your family is in our prayers and we wish you peace.

Dear Cheryl and Family -

I cannot imagine losing a child, especially at such a young age. My heart aches for you and with you. I haven’t gotten the chance to know you very well, Cheryl, but your Mom and Dad are very dear to me. I live in Corona now and see Lynn once in a while. My prayers are with you.

David and Cheryl,
I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with both of you now and always.

My dearest sister, and nephew, David:
Words can't express the sorrow we feel in our heart for such a young life taken so prematurely. Surely, Justin is resting in the Lord's arms. No more worries, no more pain.
We love you and lift you up in prayer as we will all miss him.

Cheryl, My last memories of Justin are as a beautiful toddler. What a joy I know he was to you and E.J.. Our love and prayers are with you and David during this time of sorrow.

Love, Debbie (Bramble) and Jim Ferguson

Part of Our Hearts Forever
Could we ever forget your sparkling eyes
or the way you brightened each day,
or your smile which is etched in our memories,
so you're never far away?
Could we ever forget those priceless moments?
The answer, of course, is never.
For you were part of our lives for a brief time,
but you'll be part of our hearts forever.
