Justin DiGrazia, 32

Passed away on March 26, 2023 after a long and courageous battle with colon cancer.  An instant friend to everyone he met, horror movie junkie, food enthusiast, DnD and board game fanatic, a Hufflepuff with a strong moral compass and an even stronger sense of compassion.  He loved to read, especially the Harry Potter series.  He loved his family unconditionally but had a special love for his puppy, Ruby.

Preceded in death by his grandparents, Rose Wooten, Donnie and Barbara Awalt.

Survived by his parents, Lynette (Jeff) Awalt and David (Astrid) DiGrazia; sister, Amie (Christopher) Merrick; grandparents, Alfred and Mary Smith; nephew and niece, Cameron and Allison Merrick; many other dear aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
