Justin Elder

Our treasured son is survived by his loving parents, Rich and Kim Elder, his maternal grandparents, Dan & Evelyn Thorn, aunts, uncles, cousins, half-sister and extended family. Preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Richard and Vergie Elder Sr, and aunt Sharon. Maternal great-grandparents, Kenneth and Anita Guisinger and John (Jack) and Sylvia Thorn Pomona HS 2005 Metropolitan State University BS Business Management 2010 We continue the celebration of his life as we did every day since his birth. Each day we recognize the many blessings that he brought to us and the way he touched our hearts. We are thankful for all that we shared with our son for his entire life. Justin was a strong, gentle man who was happy to be ""Chillin' On A Dirt Road"". He was inspiring, thoughtful, and humble and would tell you, ""All I want is the Good Life"". His friendship leaves a lasting impression and was filled with kindness, support and empathy. He was a talented, creative, outdoor and life adventurer and although his journey was unfinished, he reached goals beyond his years. He was dedicated in his work life and excelled in numerous endeavors. Whether working with people, managing business, doing physically demanding jobs, or driving massive trucks in the muddy, snowy, icy conditions he exhibited a strong spirit and fearless determination. Everything happens for a reason we may not understand or get to know why, but he's got a new journey and is meant for something greater. He will be carried in our hearts. Love means letting go….knowing we'll be together once again. A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, August 17, 2013, 2:00 PM, at Horan & McConaty Family Chapel, 7577 West 80th Avenue, Arvada, Colorado.
