Justus Ashcraft Obituary Highland, Utah: “It is with profound grief and anguish that I share the passing of our son, Justus Ashcraft, last night,” Justus’ family announced via a social media post.
“After losing my brother and best friend last month, I thought I was “acquainted with grief” (Isaiah 53:3), but losing a child prematurely is devastating to say the least. While we don’t completely understand the ‘what’ and the ‘why,’ we know that we love our Justus and we know that there’s a plan that assures us glorious reunions. Til we meet again, son. In the meantime, I will be better and do better to “gain my fondest dream,” which is to be together forever.”
