Life story

Maisons life was taken at a young age of 8 1/2 years old when he was hit by a garbage truck just a few yards away from his home.

Words from his family.

A friend: “ I mean me and him were like best friends. It was either riding our bikes around the trailer park or riding in the car with his family to the grocery store, I loved coming over and playing video games on the game cube with him super smash. Bros was always our favorite video game. we watched movies all the time in the house made popcorn while watching master of disguise and Shrek and other movies, swimming in the inflatable pool on the side of the trailer with Maison always kicking the soccer ball around. He loved playing with Legos and showing me the Pokémon cards he’d get”

A friend: “ He had such an amazing imagination. During recess we would completely go into our own world. We would pretend to be in a Jurassic Park hunting dinosaurs and having to run away from a T-rex. Every once in awhile I dream about it. I also remember leaving early in the morning when his mom didn't want us hanging out I would rush over to his bus stop to hangout with him then run over to mine after.”

Aunt: “ One is when I was babysitting him and made his favorite Mac n cheese. He said I made the best ever. 😆🥰. I used to take naps with him on the couch while he sucked his 2 fingers.”

Grandma: “ Maison was my first grandson. He would’ve carried on the family’s name. A bundle of joy. A fantastic little boy who will always be alive in my heart”

Older sister: “ My favorite thing about maison we had fun dancing our butts off always had dance parties 🙂 Maison and his moves 😂 We always loved to wrestle his big sister and hangout with my friends. Always slept by my side.”

Younger sister: “Maison was my bestfriend. We were always along side with one another. Going into the swamp behind our trailer park and getting in trouble because I had a bunch of burrs in my hair. He’d always tag along with me to visit my friends and vise versa. I have to live my memories with him through others often because I was so young.”

Dad: “ He was becoming a man's man. He loved to go fishing and camping of which I do also.

I loved taking him for rides in my truck and to throw a line in a creek. I loved his sense of humor 😁 He had good taste in music.”

Mom: “When Maison would squeeze my arm and say oh mom I love you and squeeze real hard.

When he would lay in my lap and twist my hair till he fell asleep.

He would sneak and push the button on the chicken cookie jar so I wouldn’t hear it crow and he would sneak cookies out.

He would always include anyone to play with him. He had the biggest heart.

He saved his money from every birthday so he could eventually take his family to WD

His laugh. He had the best laugh and loved to make people laugh.

His love of all things sports and he was so great at all of them.”

Maison was a funny, caring, charismatic little boy. His life revolved around sports, mainly soccer. Maison started his passion playing sports when he was three years old to when his life was taken at 8 1/2 years old. Maison loved to play outside whether he was playing sports or along side with family and friends.
