Justin Allen Colimen
Justin Allen Colimen (known to many as CJ), 45, of Newark, Ohio, passed away after suffering a stroke that resulted in loss of oxygen to his brain. He died surrounded by family on [date of death withheld by family].
Born and raised in Newark, CJ built a life centered on family, hard work, and a ready sense of humor. A natural salesman by trade, he was known for his straightforward manner—sometimes mistaken for coldness at first glance—but those who knew him well remembered a generous, kind man with a quick joke and a warm laugh. He took pride in his yard and found peace and satisfaction working outdoors.
CJ is lovingly remembered by his wife and their four children: Gage, Jason, David, and Brooke. He cherished his role as husband and father and leaves behind countless memories of family gatherings, practical jokes, and quiet moments spent together.
A memorial service to celebrate Justin’s life will be held on June 22, 2026. The family asks that friends and loved ones respect their privacy as they finalize arrangements and welcomes attendees to share stories and remembrances of CJ’s life.
