He attended Hochheim Lutheran Grade School near Theresa and graduated from Mayville High School in 1949. He was married on April 30 1952 to Shirley Joyce Narges, who preceded him in death on March 18, 1977. That marriage was blessed with five children, all surviving: Charles (Anne) Justmann of Waupaca, Thomas Justmann of Amherst, Richard (Jenni) Justmann of Alpharetta GA, David (Linda) Justmann of Somerset and Bethel Justmann of Mosinee.

He was a member of the Wisconsin Orchestra Leaders Association and was honored as their Orchestra Leader of the Year in 1978. He was inducted into the World Concertina Congress Hall of Fame in 2002. In 2015, he received a Distinguished Service Award from the Wisconsin Polka Hall of Fame. After moving to the Waupaca area, he also played Clarinet, Sax and Concertina with the Bloomfield Concert Band. His proudest band memories were when all four of his sons played in the band. All are excellent musicians. He served many years as President of the St John’s Church council, Secretary of St John’s school board and sang in the church choir for many years, in Lomira. He served as Clerk of the Town of Lomira and many years later after buying a larger farm in the Town of Leroy, he became Town Chairman there. He also served for 13 years as vice-chairman of the Dodge County Board of Adjustment. He served as President of the Aid Association for Lutherans (AAL) Lomira – Theresa Local. He was a farmer near Lomira and later Leroy before moving to Waupaca where he worked as an estimator / supervisor for several local grading / paving companies.
