Justin Randall Loffredi, 31, of Victoria, Kansas, died Friday morning January 16, 2009,  as a result of an auto accident five miles South of Natoma on 175^th street.  He was born on December 15, 1977 in Millington, Tennessee, the son of Steven G. and Maria T. (LaBella) Loffred. 

When Justin was younger he moved to and grew up in the Spokane, Washington area.  Later he moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico where he attended local schools and graduated from high school.  He met and fell in love with his wife Candice K. Funk; they were united in marriage on October 27, 2001 in Hays, Kansas.  From this union Justin and Candice were blessed with two daughters Taylor and Tyra.  He worked as an oil logging engineer for Pioneer Wire Line Services since 2005.  Justin loved everything outdoors, he loved fishing, four wheeling, and hanging out at the lake.  He also enjoyed W.W.E. Wrestling, Harley Davidson Motorcycles and being a handyman.  Most of all he was a classic family man who loved playing and spending time with his family, especially his two baby girls.
