Join us on Saturday at 1pm for Jaylyn's service. (Livestream)

Jaylyn Marlon Anderson, affectionately called Jaylie, our precious and beloved son, into the loving arms of Jesus on January 13, 2026, just days shy of his third birthday. Born on January 21, 2023, Jaylyn was a divine gift from God, sent to bless our lives with joy, love, and light during his brief but purposeful time on earth.

Jaylyn was a vibrant and curious little boy who found wonder in everything around him. With his bright eyes and infectious smile, he reflected the pure joy of heaven and captured the hearts of everyone he met. His days were filled with laughter, play, and love, especially alongside his sister Jazlynn, as they were truly inseparable. He loved riding his bike, working on his toy cars, watching Bluey, playing with tools, and admiring his daddy’s work truck. Jaylyn was strong, brave, and resilient beyond his years. A true fighter, he faced life with courage and grace, reminding us all of the strength God places within even the smallest among us. He was deeply loved, covered by the prayers of a family who cherished him unconditionally, and surrounded by faith every step of the way. Though Jaylyn’s time on earth was far too short, his life fulfilled God’s perfect purpose.

He taught us the purest form of love, strengthened our faith, and reminded us daily that God’s promises are true. “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18).

Jaylyn is survived by his parents, Jermaine and Tasha Anderson; his siblings, Daishunn, Destinique, Jaydene, and Jazlynn; his grandparents, Lloyd and Gloria Walker, Delia Bell, and Errol Anderson; his aunts, Pethol Walker, Kimesha Allen, and Tamieka Anderson; along with a host of other aunts, uncles, cousins, and extended family who will forever cherish his memory.
Heaven has gained a beautiful angel, and while our hearts mourn his earthly absence, we rejoice in knowing Jaylyn is whole, healed, and resting in the presence of Jesus. We hold tight to God’s promise that we will see him again. Until that glorious reunion, we will carry his love in our hearts and honor his life every day.

Family and friends will be received on Saturday, January 24, 2026 from 12pm to 1pm followed by his homegoing service at Second Baptist Church, 200 Clay Street, Rochester, PA.

Join us tomorrow at 11 a.m. for Bertha Washington's service.

Bertha May Hunter Washington, 89, daughter of Charles and Mary Hunter of Beaver Falls, PA, passed away at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Youngstown, Ohio on September 18th, 2023. Bertha
was born on September 2, 1934, in Beaver Falls, PA.

She poured her love, life, and everything into caring for her family. Her light was bright enough to fill the darkest times with warmth and the feeling of home. Our Mother had no conditions or limits to her love. Mom, Mommy, Mum, Nana to some, Mrs. Washington to others, but a guardian Angel to all. As the matriarch to our family, our mother set the standard for what it means to be a Washington, a Mali, and a Hunter. Some of you may feel like she set that same standard in your homes too; Horton, Anderson, Helisek, and I’m sure many others come to mind. We were
taught that family is not limited to those you share a name with; that real family lies in the bonds you form with friends, neighbors, brothers, sisters, and cousins. We were taught how to
truly and selflessly care for and about others. Through her vision of Family, we define who we are and whom we belong to.

Our mother is no longer here. However, she is asking us to look beyond the snow caps, beyond the redwoods, beyond, the oceans, and beyond the stars. If you do, you will hear her call. yes,
her call. Her call will make you focus, make you persevere, make you joyful, make you love, and yes, make you have the audacity to reach her. I am certain she can hear your call. Why, because
she has raised us all and knows all our voices. Her call will be tender, her call will be sweet, it will be stern, and at times faint but it will be our mother’s call.

She is preceded in death by her husband: Charles M. Washington, Pete Mali, father: Charles Hunter, mother: Mary Hunter, sister: Jeanee Hunter, brother: Donald Hunter, nephew: Jackie
Lee Hunter (Head). Brother-in-laws: Skip, Chick, Deb, Daniel, Bob, and Clarence. Sister-in-laws:Mildred, Sue, Lillie, Margaret, and Maxine. Nieces and nephews: Lester, Lawrence, Gineen,
Miranda, Bernie Washington and Nephew Jackie Lee Hunter Jr.

Bertha is survived by her sons: Peter (Kathy) Mali, Charles (Melissa) Washington, Rocky (Sheree) Washington, Ivan (Lisa) Washington, and Georgie Mali. daughters: Linda Sherwood, Cheryl
(William) McClendon, Regina Washington, Drenda (Honey) (Darrell) Banks, Linda (Doll) Mali, Quantia Mali, and Gina Mali. Bertha has many grandchildren, great and great-great
grandchildren, and numerous nieces, and nephews. Blessed was her life and Blessed is her legacy.

Our Family would like to express our gratitude and love for the overwhelming support we have received during this trying time. Every Prayer, every phone call, every visit, every word of
encouragement has reminded us of the immense love everyone held for our Mother. We are sincerely grateful.

View on Thursday, September 21, 2023 from 4pm to 6pm at Washington Funeral Home & Cremations 1411 6th Avenue, Beaver Falls, Pa and a Service on Friday, September 22, 2023 at 11am Second Baptist Church, 2322 10th Avenue, Beaver Falls PA
