Tributes
"I use to babysit Justin. He was alway the guardian to his brothers. He and his brothers had this wrist -o-rocket toy. They decided to shoot the old across in the butt with rock. They were grounded and kept taken off on there bicycles. I bribed them with chocolate malts if they behaved. That chocolate malt was my. The trick every time. Rest in peace."

"One of the finest men you will ever have in your circle. He was one BIG heart. Be glad you know him Your life is better"
"Thinking of you all during this difficult time. Sending my strength, love and prayers to help you through. "
"So sorry to hear about Justin. He was one of a kind. He did so much for me in the 17 years that I worked for him. He believed in me. He didnt care that I didnt have the business sense he believed in me and no employee could ask for more from a boss/friend/adopted son. He was the most giving man. He seemed to have come to terms with his cancer and he was so forgiving. I know he made a difference in those people he had contact with. He sure made a difference in my life."
"My condolences to the entire Peed family. Justin had a big heart. I'll always appreciate his humor, kindness, generosity and friendship. Hoping that the many good memories will soon replace this time's sadness. Rest in peace, buddie. Mark Brown, Spirit Lake "
