Justin was a great friend to me, when I was down he made me smile. He was like a Big Brother to me and was always there to give me a hug when I was sad. My condolences to his friends and family.  He was a huge part of my life and heart and my prayers are with him and those he loved and cared for and that loved and cared for him…. Now he can be with his mother with her hug to hug the son that hugged and loved many. RIP JUSTIN 

I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER ❤️

We moved to Somers, NY in 1992.  Within a few years, Chunky had become one of 6 “adopted” boys that were always roaming around our home. These young men played pool at our basement, washed their cars and motorcycles at my garage, played basketball on our driveway, organized parties hiding beer in the woods behind the house and loved to eat my wife’s food. 

Our dear Chunky was one of those kids.  He was the closest of friends to our younger son, Cesar David, but he was truly a friend of the whole family.  He visited us when we moved to Philly and then Los Angeles. He worked with David in New York, Miami and Hawaii.  Justin was a good soul and loyal friend, always wiling to help.  He was business smart and a natural salesman.   He wasn’t perfect thou, but no one is.  I talked with Justin less than a year ago and he was telling me about lots of new plans and a new life direction. I was shocked by the news of his premature departure and wish he had spent  much longer on this world, but we can’t control that. 

Justin, our friend, it’s really sad that you transformed at such a young age. You will be both remembered and missed.  The entire García family wishes you a good afterlife.  Our sincerest condolences to the Campanello family. 

Ugene & Mia sorry for your loss. Ugene you became like a 2nd father after I met Justin at age 16 at Somer High School and soon after we became very close friends.

 After I came to work with Ugene & Brett, Justin and I were like brothers. Justin family became my 2nd family (Ross, Mia, Debra, Brett & specially Ugene)

 Justin & I adventured together for almost the next 3 decades,  & we experienced so many memories  together. From all the events across Connecticut & New York. The Stamford mall Christmas decorations, & our cross country Snuggles Tour that took us from NY, Miami, Texas, Chicago, Colorado & many stops in between in the scooby doo van. To this day the greatest road trip of my life & one I’ll never forget!  The road trips to my university in Boston, and Philadelphia. Road trip to california & the road trip to return. Road trips riding motorcycles together after giving Justin his first taste on a street bike. Riding to the Hamptons on the weekends. We were the ultimate road warriors! 

Later Moving to Miami where Justin and I worked together and he was my roommate. Justin was part of every big event and adventure in my young  & adult life. From NY, to Boston, to Philly, to Cali to Miami to Hawaii Justin was always there. From starting my first business, first business partnership,  my first office, my first home, my first long serious relationship, and so much more. 

Every friend I ever made along the way always met and became friends with my beloved Justin aka Chunky Monkey & His friends still today are some of my best friends. 

 I will forever cherish our crazy memories  & sometimes dumb adventures. We did it all my brother. Only you and I will know all of them! 

My parents will miss seeing you, & I am glad you met my wife & daughters in Hawaii.  

I was expecting to meet you again. Till we will meet again. I’ll see you on the other side!  RIP my brother from another mother! 

I’ll miss you! ❤️‍🩹

Sincerely, 

David aka Rico Suave aka Daveeee aka Cesar
