Hello everyone, my name is Brandon Washington. At this time, I have suffered the tragic and traumatic loss of my one year old

daughter, Jream Jaycee Washington, her six year old brother, Wyatt Patton and their thirty-one year old mother, Drake Giana Patton.

On the evening of Friday, September 12th, 2025, I dropped my former girlfriend, Drake and the children off at one of her relative’s homes.

What followed were several concerning text messages. Little did I know that outside of a final Facetime call, that would be the last time that

I would see her or the two children alive.

By afternoon of Saturday, September 13th, 2025, the body of my one year old daughter, Jream was pulled from Lake Michigan at the 57th

Street Beach. Four hours later they would find the bodies of both her mother, Drake and her brother Wyatt in Lake Michigan at the 63rd Street Beach.

The grief following the unexpected death of Drake’s mother on Christmas Eve 2024, coupled with her bouts of depression following the birth of

Jream led her to do the unthinkable of ending the lives of our one year old daughter Jream and her six year old son Wyatt from a previous

relationship as well as her own.

I cannot begin to express how much I will miss my angelic baby girl, Jream and the smile of her big brother, Wyatt who loved her like only a big

brother could. This unexpected tragedy has left both myself and My family numb at 36 years of age I would never think I would be in this situation but I am asking Help

I am asking for prayers for me, my family and Drake’s family as we mourn this tragic loss.

Their lives were a blessing that filled my life with memories I will never forget. I am seeking your support in raising funds for cremation services and

urns for the remains of my deceased loved ones. Please, if you have it in your heart to donate, any amount will help. Thank you.
