Justin Allen Rist

Justin Allen Rist, 41, of Holland, Ohio, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, January 20, 2023. Born in Toledo, Ohio, on April 13, 1981, to Denise and Douglas Rist, Justin was known for his tireless work ethic, generous spirit and love of golf. He combined all three of these passions as an entrepreneur, launching and managing a successful small business, Fore Golfers, in 2013.

In addition to his success as business owner, Justin worked for nearly 10 years as a proud employee of the Toledo Area Sanitary District.

Away from the golf center and work, Justin enjoyed spending time with family and friends on vacation and at home. He loved all things outdoors — golfing, fishing, boating, camping, hosting pool parties and cookouts, and meticulously mowing his lawn. He was exceptionally handy and took great pride in personally remodeling his houses as their family grew and expanded.

Above all, Justin loved and cared for each one of his friends and family — especially his two children, whom he considered the brightest spots of his life.

Justin is survived by his wife, Kimberly Ann (Arnold) Rist; children, Ava and Braxton Rist; mother, Denise (Robert) Giles; father, Douglas Rist; siblings, Cori (Derrick Ford) Rist, Josh Rist, Rachel Rist, Russell Ferguson; nephew, Dakota Santos. He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Judy (Jim) Skergan, Lewis Rist Sr., and his Grammy and Grandpa Santus.

Friends will be received at Sujkowski Walker Funeral Home, 830 Lime City Rd, Rossford, Ohio 43460 on Wednesday, January 25, 2023, from 2:00 pm-8:00 pm with a funeral service at 7:00 PM. Online condolences may be left at walkerfuneralhomes.com
