Every time I think of Justin I smile. On so many occasions we laughed until we cried, and I will cherish those wonderful memories.
Not only was he a great right-hand man, he became a dedicated friend to myself and many of his team mates.
If you ever needed a shoulder to lean on, Justin was your man. He made the tough days fun and was a truly inspirational person, supporting all those around him with his kindness.
We share our grief today and remind ourselves how important and lucky we were to have Justin in our life’s.
Justin you will be missed every day, and this goodbye hurts as your story finished too soon. It was a privilege to be part of your life and you touched so many hearts along your journey. Su x

Justin Curry. A lovely, and very funny guy. Well, we met when he started Tabor High School, I think in year 2. He lived in the next village and got on the same school bus. I can fondly see him smacking his briefcase (yes, he was the only kid with a briefcase) into the shins of the people he didn't like in the bus queue whilst wearing his yellow puffa jacket. RIP brother.

A truly beautiful Justin I will miss you so much xxx

Justin.... What can l say.
We have spent many nights dancing, laughing and just being.
With your storm trooper costume donned, many amazing nights have been shared with your wonderful family but especially your beautiful sister; Lisa.
She adored you as we all did.
Your kindness, compassion and empathy always shone through along with your humour and lust for life.
It has been a pleasure growing up with you and you will be dearly missed. Your memory will always shine on in the hearts of those you touched and there will always be a shining star looking down on us.
Be at peace up there my friend and give Lisa a squeeze from me.... The sky always looks differently when you have someone you love up there xxxx

Justin. He’s the best kind of human. Even though we had a long gap between kids and adulthood I will always remember the fun times at Croxton playing in the woods, looking for newts, on the farm messing about in places we weren’t supposed to be then ending up at Birds, while the adults were getting pissed. No mobile phones so total freedom. It was always magical. Wonderful memories under the horse chestnut trees. Hide and seek during bonfire night in the big house. Feeling sad our childhood friendship stopped but so glad it reunited a few years ago with a trip to Brighton and bath. Lisa, justin, plum, fuchsia plus partners had such fun. Shots and hanging off scaffolding! We had plans to do more. The Currys are a brilliant family and I am proud and honoured to be part or them. If only a godchild. Justin and Lisa will live in my heart and my guinea pigs!

The last message I left wasn’t what I wanted to say. Justin was a beautiful man, I loved him and will miss him so much. He is one of the most wonderful people I have ever known and i will never forget him. Love you darling xxx

I consider myself lucky to have worked with Justin on a few projects over the years. He was clever and perceptive and I always valued his judgement and felt reassured he was on the case. Yet he was always modest about his talents. I am so sorry for your loss - those who loved him and needed him most. My lasting memory is of his laughter and his ability to see the best in a situation. When I had a new puppy I called Truffle that was causing havoc, he rechristened her the Truffinator and years later would remember and ask how she was doing. I have a book of quotes and I looked at the one for today and it says ‘Laugh till the dancing stops, and the lilt of the music ends. Laugh till the game is played; and be you merry my friends’. That was the Justin I knew. I am sad the music stopped way too soon for him.
Lisa McLellan
You were the funniest loveable work colleague lighting up a room and always an amazing listener - difficult to process we have lost someone so utterly fabulous - I will be forever grateful for our chats and laughs - shine bright like the superstar you were - this world is less bright without you here I will remember you always Lise xxx

I met Justin when I was in secondary school, when he was known mainly for being that 'new kid with the briefcase'.
We shared common interests in WWF, Fry & Laurie and Viz, and we spent countless GCSE English lessons passing silly hand drawn cartoons between us which ultimately developed into a 'season' of stories based around the barbers in Braintree town centre!
His sarcasm and bluntness never failed to make me laugh, and we would inevitably end up cackling about our memories of Tabor when we caught up (far too sporadically...) in later years.
Rest in peace mate - I'm glad we managed to spend one last night playing Mario Kart and laughing about the old days...
Nicola Marsh
There’s a Justin shaped hole in my life that will be there forever. I feel so incredibly lucky to have known him and been able to call him my friend. I will miss his massive hugs, our chats, the way he made me laugh and how much he supported me. Rest in peace oh handsome one xxx

Here's to a special day for Justin
Mark Scaife
Justin was one of those people that no matter how long it had been since I had seen him, we just picked up where we had left off.
We met at Tabor school, but I probably got to know him better on trips to Luton and then when I moved to Brighton.
He used to make me laugh so much my stomach would hurt.
My final memory of him was playing Mario Kart and him beating us all.
It has been a pleasure to cross paths.
Will miss you fella.

Remembering Justin & cherished childhood memories of making a fantastic den ... until the white rat visited.
Rest in peace you beautiful soul .
Susan Duffin
I first met Justin when Peter and Mary moved to Finchingfield. He often helped out at the family restaurant, The Mallard, and would delight us all with his eloquent and theatrical descriptions of the food on the pudding trolley!
He grew up to be a kind, talented, loving person who truly did light up the room.
Thinking of Peter, Mary, Alex, Harry, Matt and those who loved Justin as they grieve their beautiful man.
♥️
Emma & David
Justin you were a true friend to us both and we will forever miss your company, love and hugs. Our memories of times spent will be cherished by us, as you meant so much to us both. Xxx

I’m so lucky to have met you at work all those years ago and for that to have become a wonderful lasting friendship.
I will forever miss your wicked sense of humour, your compassion, your patience and your brilliant mind. What an impact you made on so many of us and what a loss to us all. Love you always xx

Justin had a bright and shining light that was infectious to everyone around him. I had the absolute pleasure of working with him at EDF in the propositions team. In the short time we worked together he made work that much better for him being there. He will be missed x
Penny Thompson
Dearest Justin, such a brilliant person and taken far too soon. I was at university with Justin in Luton. He will always be a huge presence in my memories of this time. We shared a house and he very rarely got up before lunchtime! Many of my memories of him feature him sitting in his dressing down whipping us all at Mario Kart and laughing away. He was a fantastic friend, hilariously funny and quick witted. He was always kind hearted and an amazing hugger, I would love one more of those big bear hugs! Rest in peace dear boy. You are in my heart and memories forever. Xxx

Justin had an incredible sense of humour and positivity that carried us during some the trickier projects we worked on. He was such an inspirational human being. RIP JC.
Andy and Clive
Remembering a lovely, charming and funny young man.
Reading these messages it’s obvious he has left so many people with so many happy memories to treasure.
Sadie McDonald
The support Justin gave to Sarah and I over the last twelve months has been selfless and wise, with the wit just laugh out loud joyous. It was my pleasure to share tales of family histories with you and for us to remember our nan and grandad Cobourne with such affection. A clearly remarkable man, who we remember with love.
Noz
JC, Joostan, Teamie, such a great guy and we had a lot of fun and laughs in the years we worked together as part of the EDF family. Super bright, super funny and always up for a bit of high jinks to brighten the day! Sadly taken in your prime, you will be missed and remembered by all who had the pleasure to know you.
Jo Clay
My fellow JC - I’ll miss your sharp wit, that twinkle in your eye and your big heart ❤️ Your light will shine on in all those who knew you - with a smile
Sending all my love to his family and friends.
Beth
So shocked and saddened to hear that Justin has gone. He brightened up the room with his sense of fun and infectious laughter. RIP. xxx

Justin, one of the loveliest human beings I met in Luton. You made me smile, comforted me when I trod on a slug and was always around to explain Mario Cart when I didn’t get it. You will be missed by us all, xxx

Justin, we shared a flat the whole way through Uni so I got to know you and your incredible mind over that time. We had some crazy times all together over those years - some that I look back and shake my head and smile at. I was telling my 9 year old (gamer!) son only the other day that there was a time in winter half term break where this guy at Uni and I once stayed up all night every day that week playing video games (yep, mostly Mario Kart and Streetfighter) and listened to Bjørk “Little fluffy clouds”, “Ansaphone” or some other random drum n bass track, and then slept all day, so basically didn’t see daylight for most of that week. That guy of course was you.
You opened my mind to new experiences in so many ways, and you also calmed me down when I was being a stress-head. (!) I am very sad that you have left this earth so soon. We lost contact a while ago but that doesn’t mean those experiences were any less meaningful. Rest In Peace now matey. Big hugs, Ad. X

I knew Justin when I worked at EDF Energy from 2012 to 2018. We worked together on various projects and he was a great colleague. He always had a twinkle in his eye, which let you know no matter how good or bad a situation was, he always had something witty to say.
I wasn't part of his close friendship circle, but you didn't need to be to feel the warmth of his spirit, the generosity of his character and the honesty of his word. You'd get the impression that he was a person that lived a good life.
I'm not very good at remembering people from previous jobs, schools, lives, but I couldn't forget Justin. He left an indelible mark in my memory. I will picture him with his cheeky grin, twinkle in his eye, just about to say something eloquently funny.
He was one of life's beautiful souls. May it rest peacefully forever.
Charlene Cornwell
I send my love to you all at this sad time, Justin was such a loving and caring man who will be dearly missed xxx

Justin was my best friends big brother. Early memories I have of him in Finchingfield, going on walks with Spike, who could hang on a rope swing and we would then push him,(the dog not Justin) going over the park, mostly being over the den at the Bowers garage and once old enough, down the Red Lion for a game of pool.
I always wished to have a brother who was just like Justin, thinking Lisa was so lucky to have him. He was inclusive, funny, caring, had amazing taste in music, was the best dancer, gave amazing hugs, and always made you feel happy when around him, (unless you were playing shithead, then he always seemed to win.)
Later memories include various parties in Essex, Brighton or beyond with the odd festival thrown in here and there. Only Justin could be the one to convince you to dance at a giant coke can at 3am as that was the only music at that time of day.
My favourite picture of Lisa and Justin attached was at Glade festival in 2006, needed a week to recover after that one...he definately knew how to enjoy and live life.
Losing Justin is like losing Lisa all over again, they were both extremely special people, will be loved and missed forever and will live on in all those that were lucky enough to know them.
Sleep well Justin, give Lisa a hug from me

I know how much cats meant to you Justin. Miss you lots xxx
Phil burnett aka pitbull4088
He was a friend, a brother, a warrior, but most of all he was the single light that never dimmed, shining on a dark valley that needed his help and he never showed anything but brightness to us all. We need him still and will miss him forever!! Til we meet again brother!
