Support Justus Wilkinson's Memorial and Burial

Remembering Justus Wilkinson

Hello Everyone,

With heavy hearts I am here to announce the sudden passing of Justus Wilkinson on September 8th, 2024 in his home in Douglas, WY. Justus was only 24 years old and is survived by his mother in NY and family in Virginia.

After high school he began career in the military as a Blackhawk technician where he was honorably discharged due to injury. He then proceeded to move to Wyoming to pursue an associates in Business. Justus was an incredibly creative person, with a unique ability to represent himself through his various crafts. He was an avid baker who loved cake decoration, working at both the bakery in Douglas and the local Rambach's. He enjoyed working with his hands with his stint in gunsmithing and had even begun to paint.

Justus was one of the most vibrant people I ever had the pleasure of knowing, and the world is certainly worse off without him. While funerary proceedings may focus on the dead, this event should be a celebration of his life. He always wanted to have a upbeat ceremony where people could share memories and find comfort in community. While this may be easier said than done, we want to make sure his wishes are honored.

Unfortunately funeral services are expensive and we would appreciate any assistance you can provide. We are currently raising funds for:

-Returning his remains to his family in NY

-Funeral Services

-General Burial Expenses (Tombstone, Local Plot, etc)

We are hoping to raise funds for the coming week so a funeral date can be set and we can come together to celebrate his life. News about the funeral details will be upcoming. From the bottom of our hearts we thank you for any assistance you can provide to the family in their time of need.

With Love

-The Wilkinson Family
