The community is in mourning following the untimely passing of Justin Sims, a dedicated Amtrak employee whose kindness and warmth touched the lives of everyone he encountered. Justin, known for his infectious laughter and generous spirit, was much more than an employee; he was a beloved brother, uncle, friend, and son.
Justin began working with Amtrak in October 2022, bringing to the role the same passion he exhibited throughout his life.

His ability to foster connections and spread joy made him a favorite among coworkers and customers alike, and now, their grief speaks to the deep impact he had on his workplace.

Friends remember him not only for his bright character but also for the way he could light up a room with his presence.
“Justin was the kind of person who made you feel valued and loved,” a close friend shared. “His laughter was contagious, and he had a way of making everyone feel important. The world feels dimmer without him here.”
As the community gathers to celebrate Justin’s life, they will undoubtedly remember the love, laughter, and happiness he shared with them. His legacy will live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know him.
