Hello, my name is Christine Williams, and I’m reaching out during the most heartbreaking time of my life.
On May 29th, 2025, my beautiful 12-year-old son, Jahlyn Parrish, tragically passed away due to a sudden and severe asthma attack. We recently moved to Lafayette, Indiana from Minnesota just over a year ago, hoping for a fresh start. I never imagined I would be writing these words so
Jahlyn was full of life, laughter, and love. He had the biggest heart, a smile that could light up a room, and dreams of doing big things in this world. His passing has left an unimaginable void in the hearts of everyone who knew him.
Jahlyn leaves behind four siblings who miss him dearly and are struggling to understand this devastating loss. As a single mother far from extended family, this tragedy is not only emotionally devastating but financially overwhelming.
I’m humbly asking for support to help cover the funeral and memorial expenses to give Jahlyn the peaceful farewell he deserves. Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference and help lift a piece of this heavy burden.
If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this campaign and keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers during this time of grief.
Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support.
With gratitude,
Christine Williams
