In Loving Memory of Tayshawn Jackson

Good evening, friends and family.

I am creating this GoFundMe on behalf of my son, Tayshawn Jackson, who was just 10 years old.

At only 3 months old, Tayshawn was diagnosed with Shaken Baby Syndrome in 2016. Despite the challenges he faced throughout his life, Tay continued to fight with incredible strength. He brought so much love, joy, and light into the lives of everyone who knew him.

On July 24, 2026, at 7:44 a.m., my biggest fear became a reality. My precious son, Tayshawn, was unexpectedly pronounced deceased at home. There are no words to describe the pain my family and I are experiencing as we try to navigate this heartbreaking loss.

Tay was smart, loving, caring, and had a smile that could brighten anyone’s day. To know Tay was to love him. He was full of life and touched so many hearts during his short time with us.

As we prepare to lay our sweet boy to rest, we are humbly asking for your support. Any donation, no matter the amount, will help cover funeral and memorial expenses and ease the financial burden during this incredibly difficult time.

If you are unable to donate, we completely understand. We ask that you please keep our family in your prayers .

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your love, kindness, support, and prayers as we honor the beautiful life of our beloved Tayshawn.

Forever 10. Forever Loved. Forever Missed.
