Mike, I am so sorry for the loss of Jackson. I know how much you love those boys. You are the best dad. My heart goes out to you my friend. God will see you through this difficult time in your life. Michelle and I will be praying for God to give you peace.
So sorry for your loss, cousin. It is so hard to lose a child. Prayers for you all.
We didn’t know Jackson, but can see by his picture what a joy he must have been to his family. We are close friends with Jackson’s grandparents, Andrew & Shelly Thomas, and are earnestly praying for your whole family during this very difficult time. We do know how Daniel loved his big brother. May God’s angels wrap their arms around each one of Jackson’s family & provide comfort while you mourn this difficult loss. 🙏
I am so sorry for the familys
loss. All my memories with Jackson are of him smiling and/or laughing. He was always so happy and full of life. If I was ever having a bad day and wanted to smile I would go to Jackson and talk to him, eventually he would say a joke that brought a smile to my face. It never failed. I can’t think of one person who didn’t like Jackson. His smile was infectious. Its so so hard for me to imagine a life without him. I know that my grief can’t compare to his family’s, but I miss him every minute of every day and I just wish with everything in me that he was still here with us.
Mr. Brannon,
Your son was such a joy to be around. I met him at Tumbles. I pray that God gives you and your family comfort.

Jackson would visit our house often with Landon and we thought so much of him. He was always so sweet and polite. I know Curt was in heaven waiting for him when he arrived. Your entire family has been in my thoughts and prayers.
We did not know Jackson , but we regret your loss and sorrow. My wife and I have lost sons and we regret that you are having to endure this pain of the “valley of the shadow of death.” We found that each person grieves in a unique way and time, so we encourage you to recognize that in your family. We found a helpful program called “Grief Share” that’s available in many towns that are listed on the website http://www.griefshare.org Parents and other family members just like you going through loss of loved ones meet and share their struggles and successes and view a short film that offers helps and advice from counselors. You should consider looking into the program when the timing is right for you.
May God provide you extra comfort at this time.
My baby boy. You will love forever in everything that surrounds me. I love you. Rest peacefully 😢
Sarah and family,
I did not personally know Jackson, but I am best friends with his mother, Sarah. Unfortunately, I never got to meet Jackson because I moved away from Colorado and missed an opportunity to meet her kids. I know all about them through through her, and I know how much she loves all of her boys.
I am so sorry for this tragic news. My heart hurts for Sarah and for everyone who loves Jackson.
Praying for healing and loving energy for everyone hurting, during this tough time.
Sarah,
I cannot fathom the pain you are feeling. I love you and I’m so sorry about your baby. I Know how much you love all of them. I’m always a phone call away, baby.

May the universe cradle precious Jackson in warmth and love. He’s a beautiful soul whose kind nature will continue to ripple through time, creating an infinite tribute to his life. Sarah, always remember, that Jackson will live eternally in his living monument to your heart.
Jackson’s light was so bright and I am glad that I got a tiny moment to meet him. It breaks my heart to know that is all I will get. I can’t even begin to imagine the weight of his loss is for anyone closer to him. Sarah, we’ll be here waiting with ready shoulders and whatever else you need, when you return.
So sorry for your loss. JEHOVAH did not intend for the world to be such a mess but he also made a way we can see our dead loved ones again in the resurrection. John 5 28 and 29. So sad for you. Liz Holloway
I am so very sad over your loss. I pray you feel The sense of peace and comfort only God can provide as you move through your grief.
Sarah, Shelly, Andrew—
No words can even express the sorrow of losing a loved one, much less a child! I loved those two little now big kiddos and will always remember them leading out in church. I’m simply at a loss of words and we won’t understand this side of heaven why this happened. But we can be assured God has us in His hands. Rest in thst peace. Love you guys
