Help us raise money

Justin Cappiello also know to his friends as JCAP

Born May 22, 1993 – Forever 25

Justin was born with a smile on his face. He was placed on this earth to make others feel loved and supported. Justin was his happiest when he was helping others and giving them strength when they were down.

Justin had an amazing physique and worked very hard at keeping himself in beautiful shape. Justin prided himself on being hard working and really loved running his own business and inspiring people! He loved to lift weights and box but inside that huge exterior he was a big teddy bear; so playful and fun loving. He filled everyone’s days with laughter and joy.

Justin was the big brother to his brother Wesley and his sister Skylar and would do anything to protect and care for them. In addition to his family, Justin had so many friends that he loved dearly and made sure he always took the time to let them know he was always there for them. 

Team Justin was formed to help raise awareness to this disease of ADDICTION that unnecessarily took him from us and left a huge hole in our hearts. Justin was loved so deeply by his family and friends and his absence is felt each and every day.

While here on earth, Justin spent his free time leading recovery meetings and being a sponsor and mentor to those that were struggling. People came from far and wide to hear him speak because he truly understood the power of Addiction and how important it was to ALWAYS make Recovery your number one priority.

Team Justin is our way of helping Justin continue his work from heaven above. 

In May 2021, the police apprehended the man that sold Justin the heroin that was laced with fentanyl which ultimately took his life. This criminal is now off the streets and is facing 10 years to life in prison. Knowing that we helped to put this criminal behind bars so he can never take another person’s life again in honor of JUSTIN CAPPIELLO has helped to comfort our broken hearts.

We are happy to be a part of Recovery Advocates and help you to carry out your mission of providing education about addiction and the tools to help those that are struggling.
