Justin Lawson

Lawson,  Justin Lee, Age 39.  We mourn the loss of our beloved Justin, taken too soon from the family and friends who held him so dear.  His life was too brief, but he lived it fully.  His easy smile, booming voice, hearty laughter, and strong embrace lit up our world, and his loss has cast a long shadow on all of our lives.  But he left a piece of his heart, a piece of his light, in the hearts of everyone he loved.  May they shine brightest when we are together in his memory, and lend us strength and comfort when we miss him most.  He is survived by his loving wife Amy (Hogsten), their children Presley and Kaitlyn; his parents Allen Lawson and Martha Stacy (deceased), parents Donnie and Sandy Wallace, mother in law Melissa Hogsten, step-father Tommy Burns, step-father Gary Stacy (deceased), and a large and loving family.  With a  long and varied list of relatives by blood, marriage, and choice, in-laws, outlaws, and otherwise, too many to list them all here.  He loved them all equally, and if your name is forgotten in this list, please know the omission was not by him, but the unintentional error of his grieving family, and forgive the slight.  His family includes siblings, Christopher, Allen, and Grayson Lawson, Jessica, Leah, Cecilia, and Rachael and their families; Donnie Ray and Dwayne (both deceased), Sammy (Bo), and Jimmy Joe Wallace, Melissa and Loretta and their families; Justin Hogsten, Billy Burns, Brandi Stacy, Scott and Brenda Fletcher, Mike Kelly, and Steve Gilkeson; Aunts and Uncles include the Pence’s- John, Kevin (deceased), Zareda, Jackie, Bonnie, and Ethan Coyle, the Wallace’s - Bobby and Robin, the Lawson’s - Jodenia and Belinda; and the extended families of all these loved ones.  He was also preceded in death by his grandparents, Jimmy and Margaret Wallace, Grayson and Billie Lawson, Darrell and Jeanette Wallace.  Funeral services will take place Tuesday, March 11th at 1:00 PM at Arpp and Root Funeral Home, 29 N. Main St. Germantown, officiated by Pastor Kenny Angel.  The family will receive friends at the funeral home on Monday, March 10 from 5:00-8:00 PM.  Condolences can be made to the family at www.arpprootfh.com.
