Background

It is with broken hearts that we share the unexpected passing of Jayden Elijah Banks, born on January 14, 2006, and gone far too soon on May 20, 2025, at just 19 years old.

Jayden was a beloved son, brother, and friend whose kind heart, bright spirit, and infectious smile touched so many lives. He leaves behind his loving mother Jenise, father Julian, and two younger siblings, Jasmine and Jackson, who adored him deeply.

In the wake of this unimaginable loss, we are coming together to help Jenise with the costs of Jayden’s cremation and a celebration of life ceremony. This time of grief should not be compounded by financial burden, and any support—big or small—will help provide Jayden with the peaceful and dignified farewell he deserves.

All donations will be used to offset the costs of Jayden’s cremation and celebration of life. Any contributions beyond the goal will go toward unexpected or additional expenses related to his passing and memorial.

If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this page and keeping the family in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for your kindness, support, and compassion during this incredibly difficult time.

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
— Psalm 34:18
Funds are being collected and disbursed by Tiffany Bell, Jayden's family friend.

Updates

Update from June 17, 2025

Thank you all for the incredible outpouring of love, support, and generosity you’ve shown to Jayden’s family during this deeply difficult time. It has been an honor to help Jenise and to witness the profound impact Jayden had on so many lives. Your contributions truly helped honor Jayden's life in a meaningful way.

Now that the Celebration of Life has taken place, we will be turning off the option for additional financial memorial gifts. Every donation has been a source of comfort and strength to Jenise, and she is truly grateful. The heartfelt messages have also brought comfort to all who loved Jayden. Jenise and her family continue to express deep gratitude for your prayers and words of encouragement—they have meant the world.

Please continue to share memories, photos, and words of encouragement, and continue to cover them in prayer as they navigate the days ahead. Thank you again for your kindness and for being part of honoring Jayden’s memory.

With love and appreciation,
Tiffany (on behalf of Jayden’s family)
