Jackson Garrett Pederson

Jackson Garrett Pederson, 15 months, of Glasgow, Mont., returned home to Heaven on Tuesday, Oct. 6, 2015.

He was born in Billings, Mont., on June 26, 2014, weighing a healthy 8 pounds, 6 ounces, to Ty Pederson and Amanda Rexhausen and an older brother, Kolt. He loved to run around in his walker and to devour food. He was very happy, yet an ornery little guy. He loved to be held, never wanting to be put down. He could look at you with mischief in his big brown eyes and you would wonder whether he wanted to bite you or hug you.

He and his big brother, Kolt, were inseparable and adored one another.

He left us too soon with an emptiness in our hearts, but we are finding comfort in knowing that he is in the best hands up in heaven.

Survivors include his parents, Ty Pederson (Jazzmin Collins) and Amanda Rexhausen; one brother, Kolt; his grandparents, Duke and Marie, Jennifer (Scott), Dave "Spook" (Tracie); Uncle Justin and Aunt Bobby (Michael, Idella), and Aunt Taylor, Uncle CJ, Aunt Sara, and Uncle Kaelin; great-grandparents and numerous great-aunts, uncles and cousins. He held a very special place in the hearts of his uncle Doug, Aunt Gwen, and cousins Nich (Karsyn) and Briana.

Visitation took place Sunday, Oct. 11, with family receiving friends from 5-7 p.m. at Bell Mortuary in Glasgow. A Celebration of Life was held Monday, Oct. 12, at 10 a.m., also at the Bell Mortuary in Glasgow, followed by burial in the Highland Cemetery in Glasgow.

Condolences may be made to P.O. Box 615, Glasgow, MT 59230. Donations will be received graciously and humbly in honor of Jackson on gofundme.com, or a savings account has been set up at First Community Bank in Glasgow.
