On February 17, 2026, we laid our sweet Mason to rest after a tragic and heartbreaking loss. At just 8 years old, Mason touched more lives than many do in a lifetime. Diagnosed with Stage 2 autism at the age of three, Mason was brilliant, determined, and incredibly gifted—especially in math. While attending Mint Hill Elementary and Billingsville Elementary, he was recognized this year as one of the most skilled math students. His teachers and classmates admired not only his intelligence but also his creativity and artistic talent.

Mason had a smile that could light up any room. He was kind, respectful, and well-mannered beyond his years. He adored his 5-year-old sister and always showed her love and protection. His heart was pure. He loved dinosaurs, Transformers, baseball, pizza, and Italian food. He brought joy, laughter, and warmth into every space he entered. Anyone who met Mason remembers his bright spirit.

As our family navigates this unimaginable loss, we are asking for support to help cover the cost of Mason’s headstone so we can create a lasting memorial that reflects the beautiful light he was. Any contribution, no matter the amount, means more than words can express. If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing Mason’s story and keeping our family in your prayers. Thank you for helping us honor our son’s life and legacy. Mason will forever live in our hearts. ♥️
