We awoke to the tragic news early last Friday, that this courageous young man loved by all, had lost his life to osteosarcoma, and the sun immediately disappeared behind a cloud.
The courage and determination Jye showed throughout what can only be described as an intensely cruel treatment process, defies words. Those closest to Jye today remembered the kind, sweet, considerate, selfless young man whose smile, despite his plight in life, continued to light up a room.
Jye always put the needs of others first, despite the pain and sheer angst that came his way during treatment.
Jye made his mark on the world in such a significant way, and he will always be etched in the memory of those whose lives have been deeply touched by his special presence.
Jye’s family Lisa, Dean, Tristan and Byron left Jye in no doubt as to how much he was loved. It is difficult to imagine a family more cohesive, attentive and supportive. Jye was always wrapped in the pure love of this remarkable family.
Sometimes there are simply no words other than to send our love, strength and our heartfelt condolences to Lisa, Dean, Tristan, Byron, Jye’s extended family and his very special group of young friends who have spent the past week contemplating life without him.
Forever young…
