Pereux and Valerie Courchene; his nephew Kadin Martin Pereux; his uncles & aunts: Joyce Pepin, Audrey (David) Henderson, Velma (Brian) Fontaine, Theresa (Irvin) Sayer, Penny Courchene, Tracy (Larry) Guimond, Raymond (Janet) Pereux, Rene (Jane) Pereux, Alain (Margaret) Pereux; and many cousins.

Justin was born in Winnipeg, MB and moved to Winfield, BC in 1985. He graduated from KSS high school in Kelowna. He was loved by a great many and had a very large circle of friends. His generosity and kindness was very evident in the way he always helped looked after people. He loved life to the fullest and participated in numerous activities. Justin loved fishing, hockey, baseball, snowboarding, golfing, soccer, and was a huge Montreal Canadiens fan. Justin love life and people. He’s likely shooting a puck around with Guy J. in heaven. His mom remembers how he would fondly call her “MOMMA” and she called him her “SONshine”, his bigger than life presence, and his bear hugs, as well as his infectious laugh and his teddy bear eyes.
I’m going to miss our many times together and our frequent texting back and forth. I will miss you and love you forever, DAD.

There are no words to express the sadness of losing Such a beautiful young man, our neighbour, my son’s dear friend from kindergarten onwards, so often at our house growing up. Justin had a gentleness about him, and a lovely sense of humour. Prayers and love to Justin’s family..

I remember when i saw you at the canadian juniors game in winnipeg. I didn’t even notice that you were standing in front of me talking to the bartender and you ordered a vodka orange… You said, gotta get them vities (vitimins in the oj) then you turned around and we gave each other a WTF stare. Its a good thing we didn’t end up in jail that night. good times. You will be missed cuz. Until Valhala.
Our deepest sympathies to Guy and Val. The heartbreak of losing a child is unbearable. Let your memories keep Justin close to you.
Lew and I are sending our condolences, we pray for strength for love and support so that we always remember our loved ones.😔🥹🥲

one hell of a guy and will be missed many !
I made him a tomahawk- “I’m an artist “I said “not a knife maker “ “ although I have made a few knives” and I’m a male hairstylist and he says to me “you make a few knifes and yet your not a knife maker , but u suck one dick……… Hope I didn’t offend anyone but this was one of the funniest jokes I ever heard and he was full of life and had the greatest laugh and it’s so sad he’s gone.
I’m really sorry for your loss ♥️ Sending prayers, strength, my love your way… 🙏
My sincerest and deepest condolences go out to you Guy and Val, but also everyone who was lucky enough to have met, got to know, and whose lives were brightened by Justin. He will be missed deeply by so many. I know he has left a lasting impression on me, and how I navigate this life.
Val & Guy, Justin was a big part of my childhood and teen years. He was the first crush I ever had, and it stayed that way until after we graduated. He is a part of many of my younger memories and will always hold a special place in my heart. I will always be grateful that I knew him. My deepest sympathies. There are simply no words for a time like this.
My condolences to you all and especially my fellow kookum Joyce and my sweet Maya. Kisses and hugs to all. So sorry to hear this sad news. My prayers for comfort and healing in times ahead. GitchiGiizhigong IbamiiAyay 🙏🏽🌹

Guy and Valerie,
I am so sorry to hear about Justin. Our whole family has known him since he was a young boy and my brother Matt was good friends with him and I also had a lot of great memories with him as he was my friend too. He always had a big heart and that is what I will remember him for the most. That his heart was always in the right. I will always miss his big smile and his laugh. Sending out big hugs to you guys as I can’t honestly fathom what you are going through. Xoxoxo
All our Love, Prayers & Condolences are with you all. Sorry this is so delayed as we just found out of this devastating news. May Justin RIP with his brother and grandparents. His grandparents. Alain & Yolanda, were very special family friends when we lived in Fort Alexander . All our love from the Rajotte Family
