LETTER TO THE EDITOR: A Word of Gratitude from the family of Justin Weimer

Dear Auburn Family,

The Weimer family wants to take this opportunity to thank the incredible community of Auburn University and the City of Auburn for your remarkable kindness toward our family, in the wake of our beloved son's recent passing. Justin lived a full and meaningful life in his brief 22 years on this earth. 

According to him, his years at Auburn were among his best. He counted many of you as his friends for life. After Justin's death, we were so touched as the University family reached out to us in such thoughtful and meaningful ways, from the flying of the Auburn flag and the displaying of his memorial plaque in his honor on campus, to so many of you sending us messages of comfort, hope, and love. 

Others of you have spent healing time with us. You have shared our grief and helped to ease our pain. We appreciate each of the ways Justin's vibrant life has been honored.

As Justin's family, we only hope and pray that we may live into his deep love for God and his compassion for people from all walks of life, and to carry on, too, the love he had for Auburn.

Again, we are more than grateful for all of your kindnesses and support.

Gratefully yours,

Scott and Cynthia Weimer and family
