Those fortunate enough to have the experience of having known Justin will mourn him deeply. They will remember a free-spirited, creative, intelligent, witty, kind, and encouraging person who was legendary in his own time… which was frequently late. Justin’s enthusiasm and energy went with him everywhere and was something you felt as soon as he walked into the room. 

No matter who you were or what was on your mind, Justin would always welcome you with a burly hug, a genuine smile and, somehow, always leave you feeling better than you did when you first saw him. He had an innate ability to connect with those around him. It didn’t matter what walk of life you were from, Justin had room in his heart for everyone.

Justin’s first passion was music. He was heavily influenced by his loving grandmother, Dorothy Proud, who Justin lived with during high school. Justin’s love of music included composition, arrangement, and especially performance. Justin loved to sing in choirs, jazz bands, karaoke, and any and every other opportunity that presented itself, including 19 consecutive U of I Christmas Concerts. He was greatly influenced and mentored by two amazing University of Idaho professors, Dan Bukvich (music), and Michael O’Rourke (philosophy).

If there’s anything positive about this tragic loss to all of us, it is that his spirit lives on in the hearts of all of those who have survived him, as they reflect on the positive impact Justin made on each of their lives. Justin was truly influential and inspirational to a large online community dedicated in their commitment to the GME stock, www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk, in part because of his own donation efforts of food and thank you cards to local retail Gamestop locations.

Justin is survived by his wife, Myriam Albor and their 3-year-old daughter, Maia, his mother Patricia Stark and her husband Don Stark, and six brothers: Christian Horn, Brendan Horn, Colin Horn, Jedidiah Proud, Darrin Horn, and Kevin Horn; step-brother Paul Krizan, and step-sister Julie Krizan. Justin is preceded in death by his father, Dennis Horn (May, 2016). These people, coupled with countless friends and relatives across the country and across the world, feel a hole in their hearts today as they mourn Justin’s passing.

We are all deeply saddened by his passing, but we all rejoice in his life and are thankful for the way in which he made the world a better place. Funeral arrangements are being made by the Church and Chapel Funeral Home in Brookfield, WI.

Thank you to all his thousands of friends and family that have reached out to offer their support and condolences. Please leave your own stories of remembrance on Justin or Patricia’s Facebook pages, so we can include them in his Celebration of Life services.
