Help Ease Burdens for Jaxson's Family

Donation protected

My name is Myk Werdebaugh. Yesterday, I received devastating news about one of my niece’s sons. Her 6year old son, Jaxson, was found in his home, having passed away due to a household accident. I can never imagine what Brittany and Lenny are going through right now, losing one of their cherished babies. Jaxson was such a beam of sunshine, just like all of his siblings. They are a very close and loving family, and this is hitting them hard.

It is at a time like this that a family should not have to even consider the financial burdens that they will face. There will, of course, be the funeral and all the expenses associated with that. But there will also be unexpected expenses that no one would or could think about. Grieving parents not able to work. Paying utility bills and rent on a home that will be hard to go back into.

If you can, contribute to this cause. Any and all contributions will be greatly appreciated.

A few thoughts from Jaxson’s mother, Brittany (Werdebaugh) Dvorak

My heart is shattered. My world has collapsed. I feel like I’m in a really bad nightmare, and I’m just trying to wake myself up but it’s not working. I’ll never get to hold his little hands again, or pick him up and give him a hug, or snuggle him, or hear him always tell me “love you momma” or him calling Kaden “Kadey”, or him yelling “John Cena” super loud before he does some random jump, or his random dances he does when he’s super happy about something, I don’t get to take him to school anymore, he doesn’t get to start first grade in the fall, we no longer get to wake up with him in our bed cuz he decided to come down in the middle of the night. Or watching him play football, which he loved so much. He made friends anywhere he went, his smile was contagious, he was the best little boy ever.

His siblings no longer have their brother. Trevor and Kaden don’t have him to look up too, or play with, Trevor keeps saying “I want my brother back so he can play Roblox with me”. They no longer have him to dig in the dirt for worms. The My little free spirited little dude is flying high in the sky, and I know his great grandma dear has him with her arms wrapped around him in the biggest hug.

Anyone who’s sent messages or texts, I see you, and appreciate all the people sending prayers for our family.

“We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closin'
Hearts are never broken
And time's forever frozen still”

Please keep Lenny and Brittany, along with their 6 children, in your thoughts and prayers. This is an extremely hard time and all the love, kindness and prayers are immensely appreciated.

Thank You!
