Justin Stewart Davenport

Justin Stewart Davenport, 41, of Smithville, Texas, passed away on September 10, 2026. He was born on April 1, 1985.

Justin was a graduate of Ayala HIgh School in Chino Hills, California, finishing in the top 10% of his class. As a student, he brought steady dedication to what he pursued and excelled in both varsity basketball and football—showing the discipline and determination that would continue to mark his life.

In his personal life, Justin carried himself with a gentle spirit and an open, generous heart. He had a natural ease with people and genuinely enjoyed talking with others and learning about them. Many will remember the warmth of his presence, the kindness he extended without fanfare, and the lightness of his humor—often arriving at just the right moment.

Justin found meaning and expression through music, playing guitar, and he also trained as a boxer, approaching both with focus and resolve. Above all else, Justin loved the Lord. He loved to read his Bible and to speak with others about Jesus, and his faith remained central to who he was and how he related to the world around him.

Justin leaves behind a loving family, including a nine-year-old daughter.

“Justin was a big man with a big heart. Though he tried, he was not able to find where he belonged in this world. We loved him completely.”

We will miss his smile and his sense of humor, and we believe we will see him again someday.
