28-year-old Justin Glover is survived by a loving wife and two young daughters. He is fondly remembered for the faith and affection he shared with those around him.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Nearly a week has passed since a fatal accident on the Buckman Bridge, and now the wife of Justin Glover is speaking up. She hopes the community will remember her husband for the faith and love that were integral parts of his life.

Hannah Glover talked with First Coast News as she described the man she lost and the legacy he leaves behind.

Justin, she said, was a smart and talented man who “lit up the room when he walked in.”

Above all, Hannah says his deep love for Jesus is the legacy she wants the world to remember most.

The couple’s story began at Murray Hill Theater in Jacksonville, where they worked together and officially met.

She first noticed Justin years earlier at an award banquet with their mothers.

“We didn’t actually meet,” she said. “I just saw him, and he was awe-stricken by me. I thought it was funny.”

After college, the two reconnected. A citywide prom at the theater became their first date, and soon after, Justin proposed.

Their love grew into a family with two daughters, now 8 and 4.

“They’re super beautiful, gorgeous girls, and they’re super smart,” Hannah said.

Now, Hannah sees Justin every day in their daughters.

“I know they miss their dad,” she said.

Their world changed forever when Justin died, just two days before their ninth anniversary.

The Florida Highway Patrol reported that Justin was driving southbound on Interstate 295 at around 6 a.m. on June 30 when he collided with a stationary box truck located in the left emergency lane of the Buckman Bridge.

“Sometimes I just feel him around me, like I can feel him right now, even just getting me through everything,” Hannah said.

She credits her faith for holding her together.

“This is Jesus, all God,” she said.

Hannah hopes Justin is remembered for his faith and his love.

“He would want people to know that, He will be there for you, Jesus will be there for you,” she said.

The Florida Highway Patrol said the investigation into the crash is ongoing and the cause has not yet been determined.

Friends and neighbors are rallying around the Glover family.

A Meal Train and GoFundMe have been set up to help support Hannah and her daughters as they navigate life after loss. Click here for more information.
