Justin Avery Henry passed away at the age of 14 years on Monday, January 14, 2013 at 6:01pm in Houston, Texas due to a tragic car crash. He was born in Pensacola, Florida at Sacred Heart Hospital. He arrived into the world at 2:10am on Monday, May 25, 1998. Justin knew how to take life by the horns and live each day to the fullest. He was a free spirited, active, brave, and vibrant young man.

He loved the outdoors, school, church and his family. Justin was an 8th grade student at Campbell Jr. High and all of his siblings looked up to him. Some of his favorite things were football, basketball, swimming, video games, skating, eating cereal and his favorite color was red. Justin had a great sense of humor and loved making people laugh. He liked to be the center of attention either dancing or making jokes, as long as he was entertaining everyone he was happy. He was never afraid to express his "I love you`s". Justin, you are and always will be unconditionally loved and will be missed tremendously by everyone who knew you. You are the twinkle to my stars, fly high baby boy!

Justin is survived by his mother, Aubree J. Burgett, his father, Van T. Henry Jr. and his guardian, his Great Aunt Sherry R. Lott. His sisters and brothers, Athena R. Henry, Hannah E.

I only knew you for what seems such a short time, maybe 4 years. When I became friends with Sherry though our mutual friend Evelyn. I saw you grow and change in such a short time from a kid to a teenager. I saw you struggle in school and life and advised Sherry from the heart. when I picked you up that night from that "place" you were so grateful and sweet. I never knew you were in such agony. I wish I could have done more, as we all do. I know you and Skyla are in a better place and feeling no pain now! We will all miss you dearly. I will never forget the hug you gave me that night. RIP Justin & Skyla Love, Jennifer

My heart breaks that you left this world so suddenly and at such a young age. With all your dreams yet to be fulfilled. I find some comfort in knowing that you are in a better place with all of Gods Angels. And that the love of your young life Skyla and you will walk hand in hand for eternity.
I remember when you were three years old and your Mom and you stayed with me and my children how you and Michael got into everything. You were such a little cutie. Mischievous, happy, always smiling, loving little child. I remember how Racheal and Alena use to love to babysit you cause you were so sweet and so cute. I watched you grow up threw the years into that same young man.
I'm so glad you and your Aunt Sherry got to spend your last Christmas Eve with me and my family. I know how much you liked to eat and boy did you.
All of us will miss you terribly that sweet smile and that crazy sense of humor of yours.Stay close to your Aunt Sherry watch over her and all of your love ones that you left behind.
Until we meet again in a far better place I pray that you rest in peace with your girl and the love ones that were there waiting with open arms to greet you.
I love you Justin and will miss you kido.

Big little baby brother ,there's no way I can express the pain in my heart for losing you so soon. The times we had together Justin , I will forever and always keep that the closest to my heart till the end of time. You mean so much to me,words can't even explain the love I have for you. I would of walked to the end of the earth for you an kept going. I wish I could of been there with you, I should of because I feel like you really did listen to the things I told you. I believe I could of prevented some things. I don't know how I'm going to live the rest of my life without you or just knowing your not a phone call away. This is going to be the biggest obstacle of my life to overcome which I have no faith in. Life is so unfair. I've been strong for 19years i think I can weaken an shut down for a while. I just want you to know that you were loved unconditionally ,you were a delight to have around. I miss your funny jokes and pranks you use to pull. Ill never forget the time I dyed your hair with red kool-aid, with it leaking all over yourself and you freaked out cause I told you it would stay like that forever lol, all the forts and tents we made, all the times I messed your hair up, you would take like 20mins perfecting. You were such a boy, taught me how to get dirty,climb trees, and catch snakes. We shared one of the strongest bonds anyone can share, brotherly sisterly love... an as hard as it is to believe that I can't see you, hear your voice,or hug you one last time , I know you will always be with me in spirit. You're the twinkle to my stars above Justin , Nobody could or will ever take your place. May god be with you and that you carry all our love inside your soul where ever you may roam.

The tragedy you encountered and misfortune of you not being in this world any longer really saddens our hearts. To lose a loved one is the worst thing that any parent, family member, and friend can endure. Our prayers go to all that knew and loved Justin, especially Sherry! He was a great friend and his SMILE said it all! We will miss you dearly and will never forget you! Farewell my friend as we shall see each other again.

I'm sad to hear when loved ones leave this world but to think of the kingdom above is something to welcome. I wasn't around Justin enough but he was family and I will miss him. My heart goes out to you Aubrey and Van I can't imagine losing a child. We always say we should go first but God has another plan. Keep the faith and always look to God for your strength he is listening. There isn't anything I can say to change how you're feeling but I wanted to let you know I'm here. May Justin rest in peace now. We send lots of love and prayers.
Andrew, Amy and Emily

Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase. MLK,JR.

May it bring you peace to know without a doubt that your baby is finally Home with The Lord. Trust Jesus as your Savior and you will be with him again for eternity.

2 Corinthians 5:6-8 So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight. Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

I thought this got easier. It doesn't. You will FOREVER be MY big brother! Life with you made perfect sense you were and still are my best friend! I remember getting the call that you were gone. I just fell to the floor. Thought it wasn't true... None of this could be true. It is a nightmare. Now I realize that this nightmare will last forever. Tears wont bring you back. Prayers wont. Nothing will. We have been best friends since we were 4. Nothing in this whole world could change that. I chose you over anyone. The first time I ever got in trouble was for you. I would do it all over again to see that smile. Then when I was in 6th grade you asked me since you weren't my blood family would my kids call you Uncle Justin. Yes, they will never get to meet you but I will tell them so much about you. How that smile could light up a room. I couldn't be sad when I was with you. I remember crying on your shoulder for 2 hours straight when my cousin passed away! You made everything okay though. I need you Justin Avery Henry! I ask myself if I could have changed this! You could have told me what was wrong. You tell me everything. Said you would talk to me that night. You never made it home though baby! I used to get so mad at you for calling me at 3 in the morning, but now I would kill for that to happen. just too pick up the phone and it be you. I LOVE YOU! Hope your partying up in Heaven. You're the best Guardian Angel a girl could ever ask for!
I promise I will graduate just for you. I know that's all you ever wanted for me! Love you baby boy rest easy! <3
