Justin Hamrick
Justin M. Hamrick, 25, of Rockford, died Aug. 25, 2013, in a car accident.
He was born in Lima on March 4, 1988, to Jack and Susan Hamrick of Rockford, who survive.
He graduated from Parkway High School in 2006 and was a student at Wright State University-Lake Campus. He loved children and was growing his hair long to donate to cancer victims - that was the kind of person he was - caring and empathetic.

Deceased are grandparents Arthur and Dorothy Hamrick.
