Justin had an amazing soul. He was the very first boyfriend that I had that met basically my whole entire family and I was able to do stuff outside of school with. When we met we just clicked and even after our relationship we remained friends and he always had my back. I send my love and condolences to the family. Pettway meant so much to many people and he was ALWAYS there when you needed him. We may have physically lost a great person but his soul will forever be with us and the memories we shared with him. I love you Pettway!!

I came to GA in 2015, mannn tumbleweed was the spot right next to Keaton!! That was the first time I met Pettway. They had me laughing so hard man I tell ya. It's crazy cuz the last month I've been going out we have literally run into him EVERY spot me and Qt hit. Your smile was contagious, your laugh was remarkable, your sense of humor was amazing and definitely unexpected. Pettway you mean more to people than you will ever know. I am very blessed to have met someone like you and in the last month have been able to see you as much as I have. It was god sending us a message that you were with us!! That last pic wit ur bro playing pool, mann listen don't ask how I have that but it was meant for it to be taken when I did!!! God has an amazing angel he has gained so don't let us fail, I need you to be strong now for everyone that's hurting bro. Love I frfr

We are sending our prayers and condolences to the Byrdsong and Pettway families. May Our Heavenly Father comfort you during these difficult times. JP became such a disciplined little boy. He was a joy. I remember all of my great nieces and nephews running around in the country in Clyattville, GA getting as dirty as they could get. JP grew to become an awesome young man and father. I don't have words of comfort, but know there's comfort in the word of God: "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭34‬:‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬. Love Always, Aunt Faye Williams Mitchell (Jonathan), Elisha, and Ashley Ellenwood, GA
