RAYMOND – Helen “Jackie” Justice, 91, of Raymond and Port Orange, Fla., passed away peacefully at home on Sept. 27, 2025, surrounded by family.

Born on Oct. 4, 1933, in Somerville, Mass., Jackie lived a life marked by kindness, generosity, and unwavering devotion to those she loved. She was an incredible role model for woman across the generations.

She married her high school sweetheart, Norman E. Justice with whom she shared 60 years of a remarkable life. She supported his dream of owning a farm, and in 1969 they established the Justice Farm in Gorham. In later life they traveled the country in their RV and met many wonderful friends. She became a gifted quilter and loved to play games with the family.

She was known to many as “Nana J”. Her 12 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren and her two great-great-grandchildren all loved listening to Nana’s stories around the campfire. All their friends became big fans of “Nana J” and loved being included in her extended family.

She is survived by her four children and their spouses, Susan Gendron (Mark), Sandy Savage (Bill), Norman Justice (Tody) and Scott Justice (Sommi); as well as her many grandchildren.

At her request her burial will be private.

Donations can be made in her memory to the
