Waylon was born on July 19, 2025, and in his short time here, he filled the lives of those around him with immeasurable love, joy, and beautiful memories.

Waylon had the sweetest personality and brought joy to everyone who met him. He loved staring at himself, playing with his little keys and musical toys, and flashing his big, beautiful smiles, especially for his mom. His expressive little side-eye and the way he loved to grab his cords were just a few of the many little things that made him so special.

Despite the challenges he faced in his young life, Waylon was known as the happiest baby, always bringing light and love into the room. His laughter and sweet spirit will forever remain in the hearts of those who loved him.

Though Waylon's time with us was far too short, the love he gave and the memories he created will last a lifetime. His family will forever carry his light in their hearts and will always remember the joy he brought into their lives.

For such a small little life, Waylon made an immeasurable impact. He will forever be loved, forever be missed, and forever be part of the hearts of those who knew him.
