Jhin's obituary
Bruce Edward Baldwin was born on January 24, 2002 to George and Tish Baldwin. He was 21
years old when he suddenly passed on February 24, 2023. He is survived by his wife, Aleshia
Baldwin, and his two sisters Madison and Molly. Bruce is also survived by his nephew (Landon)
and four nieces (Kyndall, Kaylie, Charlie, and Amelia). He has two very special individuals that
he viewed as his Pagan parents, Minerva and Dante Juniku. He is severely missed by his cat
(Hallo) and two dogs (Rango and Shadow).
Bruce graduated from Lake Cormorant High in 2020, where he was known to his friends as
Jhin. He enlisted in the Mississippi National Guard his senior year on December 19, 2019 as a
UH-60 Black Hawk Aircraft Mechanic. He had high aspirations of becoming a Black Hawk Crew
Chief, as well as a paramedic. Bruce had a passion for eating spaghetti daily, playing Dungeons
& Dragons with friends, and exploring and preserving nature. Bruce was the type of person who
went out of his way to help people, no matter what he was facing himself. He made people feel
like they could talk to him when they needed a shoulder to cry on, or someone to celebrate with.
Bruce brought joy to everyone around him, and always loved to cause a little chaos to make life
more interesting and fun. Everyone that knows him loves him and misses him dearly. In lieu of
flowers, send donations to the Support 22 Project in Bruce’s name.
