Justin Moyer

Justin Moyer grew up in Palm Beach County and carried with him the quiet determination of someone who loved music, family, and his community. A graduate of Palm Beach Lakes High School, Justin pursued music as a passion and hoped to build that interest into something meaningful for himself and his son. Those who spoke for his family described him as a father — his child was a central part of his life.

Family meant everything to Justin. In court testimony and news coverage following his death, his mother, Valli Moyer, described an enduring grief that reflects how close they were; she has repeatedly spoken of the emptiness left by his loss. Justin also had other family connections in the community: his mother has said the family continues to carry his memory through the years.

Friends and acquaintances remembered Justin for his creative ambitions and for the ordinary, human things that give life shape: the music he worked on, the time spent with loved ones, and the role he played as a parent. Public reporting about his life notes his pursuit of music and his ties to local schools and neighborhoods in West Palm Beach.

While public records and news accounts document the suddenness of his death on June 4, 2018, the focus here is on who Justin was in life — a father with artistic hopes, a son and sibling who mattered to his family, and a member of his local community. His life was more than headlines; it held the small, private moments that mattered most to those who loved him.

Justin’s memory lives on through his child, his family, and the friends who remember his voice and his ambitions. Those who loved him continue to honor his life and the human connections he left behind.
