JUSTIN CHRISTOPHER AUGUSTSON Suddenly on Thursday, December 9, 1999 in his 19th year, Justin Christopher Augustson left for a better place. Born in Edmonton, Alberta, March 26, 1980, Justin accompanied his parents to Borden, Ontario; Winnipeg; Cold Lake, Alberta; Ottawa, and finally back to Winnipeg. Justin was active in Air Cadets and enjoyed his time with them as a student and later as an instructor. His passion for and love of music encompassed both the Cadet band and John Taylor Jazz band. He loved to go skiing and fishing with his dad, dirt biking with his mom and dad and camping with his friends. Over his short life Justin played badminton, tennis and squash, and he beat his dad at all of them. He played hockey to teach his parents how to get up early, tried his hand at Karate, and even gymnastics. Justin was the light of our lives, the standard from which we measured our happiness. Although the light is gone a time will come when our memories of him will no longer bring forth the tide of sadness. . . we will again see his smile. Remaining to forever cherish Justins memory are his mother and father, Darlene and Allen; his sister Angela; grandparents, Robert and Diane Murphy, all of Winnipeg; grandmothers, Edith Augustson of Orillia, Ont. and Joyce Pritchard of Vancouver, B.C.; uncles, Tom (Gail) Allen (Sandra) and Bob (Marni) Murphy of Vernon, Oyama and Port Colquitlam, B.C. respectively; Richard, Barry and Wayne (Patti) of Orillia; aunts, Wende (Dave) of Orillia, Marilyn (Ed) and Debbie (Alvin) of Vancouver, as well as numerous friends.
