Jax Putthoff Obituary
He was born on April 11, 2007 to Josh and Trisha Putthoff in Shawnee, KS.
Jax was a student at Olathe South High School, and enjoyed time spent with his friends and listening to music. Jax loved his family, his friends, and Jesus. He had a way to make all those around him feel better and a smile that would light up a room. He is loved by so many and all who knew him will have a Jax-sized hole in their hearts.
Jax is survived by his loving parents, Josh and Trisha, his brothers Gabe and Beckett, Grandparents John and Pam Putthoff, Richard and Connee Rome, and Bill and Tarcy Betsworth, and also aunts, uncles, and cousins.
In lieu of flowers, the family would encourage gifts to the Jax Putthoff Memorial Fund, in care of the Olathe Public Schools Foundation online at www.olathepublicschoolsfoundation.org or by mail at 300 E. Loula, Olathe, KS 66061. Funds will be used to help Olathe students access mental health care.

I did not really talk to Jax much but I live down the street and remember playing in his backyard with him with the other neighborhood kids we all had such a fun time and he was always a nice kid to be around. He is in heaven watching down on us all
