On Monday, October 27, 2025, we lost Michael “MikeQue” Jackson a loving partner to Lexci, a devoted granddad to baby Amir, and the steady pillar of his family. In the wake of this tragedy, Lexci was displaced from their home. With no life insurance in place, we’re asking our community to help lay Mike to rest with dignity and support his wife as she finds safe, and stable housing. As she navigates unimaginable grief, she now faces urgent financial burdens: funeral costs, temporary lodging, and starting over in a new place.

Mike loved fiercely. He loved Lexci like no other, showing up with big hugs, an open heart, and a helping hand for anyone who needed it. His sudden passing has left an immeasurable void.

How Your Gift Will Help

• Memorial expenses

• Temporary housing (hotel) and immediate essentials

• First month’s rent, deposit, and moving costs for a new home

• Basic needs for the household

• Counseling and support services as the family heals

Why This Matters:

Mike was the one who lifted everyone else. Now it’s our turn to lift his family. If you knew him, you know the warmth of his hugs, the kindness of his words, and how he showed up without being asked. Let’s send Mike off with the honor he deserves.

Ways You Can Help:

• Donate what you can—every gift matters.

• Share this campaign widely with friends, coworkers, and community groups.

Thank you for surrounding this family with love during the hardest days of their lives. Your generosity will help them grieve, regroup, and rebuild.

Thank you much,

Michelyn Johnson on behalf of Lexci.
