Justin
Leslie
Plympton
May
9, 1989 – September
4, 2016
Justin passed at his home in Eureka of an epileptic seizure.
He
was born in Eureka
and grew up in Pittsburg,
Calif.,
where
his lust for life and adventure began. Always
trying to outdo his brother, he learned early how to shine. He
made friends wherever he went, living large at a young age.
When
he was a teenager he moved to Redding,
where he was able to touch even more lives. He
graduated from North
State
Independent
High
School
and finally made it back to Eureka,
where he attended College
of the Redwoods.
Justin
was a free spirit, living life his way – full speed ahead, never
afraid to take a chance, always willing to lend a hand, helping
others before he’d help himself. He’d
give you the shirt off his back or the last dollar in his pocket. If
you met Justin,
you liked Justin.
I’ll never forget his smile, laugh or hugs. He
was always happy. He
never let life get him down. I’ve always heard only the good die
young. Fly
free, Justin
Plympton!
Until
we meet again!

Plympton

Plympton;

Hytken
and Bebe
Lara;
great-uncle Christopher
Villa
