It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Jaxon Cash Carlson, a beloved little boy who graced our lives for far too brief a time. Born on April 12, 2024, in Conway, South Carolina, Jaxon brought immense joy and light to all who had the privilege of knowing him. He was a precious child, only 6 months and 5 days old when he left us on October 17, 2024, but in those few months, he filled every moment with his infectious laughter and bright smiles.
Jaxon was a happy, bright baby boy, known for his delightful ability to smile through every moment, never once showing signs of crankiness. His presence radiated warmth and happiness, a reminder of the beauty of innocence and pure love. Though his time with us was all too fleeting, the impact of his spirit will remain forever etched in the hearts of his family.
He is survived by his loving mother, Crystal Carlson, and devoted brother, Josh Carlson, who will carry the memories of their cherished time together. Jaxon will also be remembered fondly by his grandmother, Teash Carlson, who held him with love and pride during his short life. Additionally, he leaves behind a supportive clan of aunts and uncles: Kathleen and Matthew Nielsen, Amy and Nicholas Gallo, and James Carlson, who enveloped him in affection. His cousins, Olivia Carlson, Mia Carlson, Madison Miskar and Cadence Kessel, who will always treasure the joy and laughter they shared with him.
Jaxon was predeceased by his grandfather, James R. Carlson, whose legacy of love continues to resonate within the family.
A visitation for Jaxon will take place on Monday, October 28, 2024, from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM at The Morrison Etheridge Funeral Home, located at 86 Bartholdi Ave, Butler, NJ 07405. A funeral Mass will be offered Tuesday, October 29th, 11:00 AM at St. Anthony of Padua Church, 65 Bartholdi Ave, Butler, NJ. Final Disposition will be Private.
As we gather to honor the memory of this sweet boy, we find comfort in the love that surrounds him and the shared memories that will forever keep his spirit alive.
