Justy Ferraro, BHS '58 (1936-2021)

Email received today...

Hello, my name is Cari James and I am Justy Ferraro's daughter. I wanted to inform you that Justy passed away August 1, 2021. I am a little late with this notice, I apologize.  

My father graduated from Burbank Evening High School in 1958. He joined the Army and spent most of that time in Japan.  He married my mother in 1959 and they were married until her death in 1995. They had three girls. My Dad was a great person but I am sure a hellion in his high school days. He had great memories of Burbank High and always called himself The King of Burbank to the day he passed.

Justy was 85 and passed from a short illness. He was surrounded by myself and my two daughters. He has a great-granddaughter and one on the way.

Thank you,
Cari James
