Justine A. Hitchcock

CLEVELAND, OH – Justine A. Hitchcock, age 34, passed away unexpectedly on November 19, 2024.

Born on December 6, 1989 in Massillon, OH, she was a resident of Cleveland for the past three years, previously of Wooster.  She was a graduate of Dalton High School and Akron University graduating with honors in psychology.  Justine previously worked for SciTrain as an Executive Assistant and HR Coordinator.  She also became a certified health coach and yoga instructor, but her favorite job was mom.

Justine was a beautiful soul that fiercely loved her children, family, and friends with a smile and laugh that could light up any room.

Throughout Justine’s life, she always wanted to find a way to give back and possibly help any hurting soul. She had dreams someday of getting her Master’s and helping individuals that suffer with mental illness and addiction, but sadly, God needed her sooner than expected.

Preceded in death by grandfathers, Edward Johnston Sr and Andy Santora; grandmother, Janet Hamilton, she leaves behind her children, Easton and Shae Hitchcock; parents, Edward and Christina Johnston; sister, Stephanie (Joshua) Hendrix; nephew, Brady Hendrix; niece, Mia Hendrix; grandmothers, Ethel Santora, Barb (Tom) Hamilton, JoAnne Johnston; her childrens father, Nate Hitchcock; other family and friends.
