It is with broken hearts that we share the sudden and unimaginable loss of Jayvon(JJ) the beloved only child of Kristen Taylor-Saunders. Jayvon passed away unexpectedly on July 23, 2025, at the age of 18, leaving behind a void that words cannot begin to describe.

Jayvon(JJ) was the light of Kristen’s life — her pride, her joy, and her entire world. Losing a child is every parent’s worst nightmare, and for Kristen, this loss is beyond devastating. As she faces this overwhelming grief, we are reaching out to support her in any way we can during this time of sorrow.

Jayvon was a true ball of energy — always moving, always smiling, and always bringing joy to those around him. He had a vibrant spirit that lit up every room he entered, and his laughter was unforgettable. Whether he was playing, joking, or simply being himself, Jayvon made life brighter for everyone who knew him.

For Kristen, Jayvon wasn’t just her son — he was her world, her purpose, and her heart. The bond they shared was unbreakable, and now, in the face of this unimaginable loss, Kristen is left navigating a grief no parent should ever have to face.

We have created this GoFundMe to help relieve some of the financial burdens Kristen is now facing — including funeral expenses, memorial arrangements, and time away from work to grieve. No one should have to worry about money in a moment like this.

Let us come together to honor Jayvon’s life, support Kristen through this heartbreaking time, and remind her that she is not alone.

If you are unable to give, please consider sharing this campaign and keeping Kristen and our family in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you for your love, support, and compassion during this heartbreaking time.

With love,

Family & Friends of Kristen.
