Justin Alexander White
April 19, 2009 - September 5, 2024
With a heavy heart, we announce the passing of Justin Alexander White, age 15 of Casa Grande. After a courageous 6 year battle with osteosarcoma, Justin’s radiant, joyful soul has moved on to rest peacefully in eternal happiness.
Justin was born April 19, 2009. The first son of Casa Grande resident Ana Gonzalez. Though his time on earth was brief, his
impact was profound. Justin was a sophomore at Mission Heights Preparatory High School, where he enjoyed spending time with friends, dancing, shopping, and expressing his creativity through art. He had a passion for fashion and makeup, with aspirations of moving to New York to attend the Fashion Institute of Technology. Known for his gentle and loving nature, Justin was kind to everyone he encountered.
Throughout his battle with cancer, Justin remained hopeful and resilient, facing every surgery, doctor's appointment, and setback
with a positive attitude. In his eyes, his illness did not define him; he was silly, feisty, and quick-witted, embracing each day with joy and an appreciation for all of life’s little moments. His love for his family and friends was immeasurable, they meant the world to him. Justin was a sparkling presence, capable of bringing constant laughter and fun to those around him. Although he is no longer physically with us, the impact of his light and spirit continues to resonate with everyone who knew him.
In honor of Justin’s life, we encourage everyone to cherish each small moment of life with your loved ones. Follow your dreams,
don’t wait for tomorrow. Spread kindness and always remember, every morning that we get to wake up is a gift, and there is joy to be found in each day. You have one life to live, live it boldly and love loudly with all your heart.
Justin’s loving family includes his mother Ana Gonzalez, Father Thomas White, Step Father Ralph Warren IV, sister Ariana Warren, Grandparents Laura Gonzalez, Late Jose Gonzalez Jr., Annalisa White, Craig White, Ralph III and Michell Warren. As well as many dear friends and family in Arizona, New York, Texas and New Mexico.
