Somersworth- Justin Bowden Hamlin, 36, of Brentwood, NH died tragically on Monday, May 2nd , 2016.

He was born February 6th, 1980 in Pensacola, Florida to father, Jeffery S. Hamlin and mother, Mona Masse Lucas. Through his life, Justin had become a beloved member of a very large extended family, each person an important part of his life. The entire family is deeply saddened and will miss him dearly.

Justin is survived by his wife Alicia Lyn Hamlin, daughter Jayda Hamlin, sons Jacob and Justin Hamlin. His grandmother, Sandra Hamlin. His parents, Jeff and Sharon Hamlin, Mona and John Lucas, and Mark Lynes. His brothers, Joshua Hamlin, Craig and Jordan Lynes. His sisters, Amy Bell, JamieMarie Friars and Danielle Lucas. There are also so many aunts and uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews, in-laws, and friends who meant so much to Justin. They too mourn his loss.

Justin was an adventurous, loving soul whose grasp of life at times was so amazing. He could brighten your day with his beautiful smile and his kind eyes. He impacted so many during his life. He would share himself with everyone, articulately discussing the endless parts of life that he was so fervently passionate about, or just simply spending time talking with you. I know many of you loved and appreciated that about Justin.

First and foremost, Justin cherished time with his family in both Maine and New Hampshire. He loved music, fishing, hiking, and camping. Justin also had a true passion for technology. He self-taught himself to the point of being able to create opportunities in online marketing, IT consulting, graphic design and project management, while building two online marketing sites.

Please pray that Justin has found peace and will no longer have to battle the demons he's fought throughout his life. That he is in heaven and is embraced in God's love and acceptance. That's all Justin truly wanted, was love and acceptance in life.

Services- A memorial gathering will be held on Saturday, May 14th, 2016 from 12 - 3pm at the American Legion, 232 Calef Hwy, in Epping NH. A few days later, a private family burial will be held in Maine.

In lieu of flowers, we ask that you simply hold a special memory of Justin in your heart, never let it go, and always cherish it. That's all he really would have wanted…
