Jaxon Oliver Daniels, 10, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, December 28, 2024 at his home after a brief illness. Jaxon was born on July 15, 2014 in Noblesville, Indiana to his parents Nathan Daniels and Haley Writtenhouse.
Jaxon was a fourth grader at Tipton Elementary. He had a love for learning that was present not only at school but in his home life as well. He was always inquisitive, mature, and wanted to understand how things worked. He loved reading and sharing all the subjects he found interesting. Jaxon enjoyed playing minecraft, building legos, and drawing. He was incredibly talented and creative! He was an epic gamer! Jaxon would study a game until he learned every strategy to defeat it. He beat many games; Hello Neighbor, Bendy and the Ink Machine, Cuphead, Roblox, Sonic, and Mario to name a few. He even became skilled in coding and was able to create his own games online.
Jaxon has three older siblings and three younger siblings. The job of peace maker that the middle child typically carries suited him well. He had a way of making others feel at ease, included, and comfortable. Jaxon’s parents often found him playing games with his siblings. Typically, it wasn’t something he most likely would have chosen to play, but he enjoyed seeing each of them happy and he loved spending time with them. Jaxon was definitely an old soul and he led by example without even realizing it. He naturally made others feel loved and important and he very willingly made sacrifices for others. Jaxon also loved quality time with both of his parents. He loved nothing more than when he was able to get one or both of them to play a board game or talk classic Mickey (his absolute favorite) with him. Jaxon knew everything there was to know about the history of Walt Disney, animation, Mickey, and how this entertainment has continued to evolve through so many generations. Jaxon was truly unique, with such a sharp mind. He almost always had a smile on his face and loved making his family and friends laugh. Jaxon truly had the sweetest heart that brought immeasurable joy to everyone in his life. He will be missed beyond measure!
Those left to carry on Jaxon’s legacy of love are his parents, Nathan Daniels and Haley Writtenhouse; siblings, Maddux Daniels, Ella Crawford, Nathan Crawford, Lillie Ann Daniels, Zoe Daniels, Benjamin Daniels; grandparents, Dale & Jeanne Daniels, Lisa & Kenny Goodrich, Ken Writtenhouse; great grandparents, Pat Langley, Essie Kay Writtenhouse; aunts and uncles, Lisa Anderson (Dustin), Heather Gibbs (Skip), Ashley Jasinski (Andy), Zach Writtenhouse (Angelicia), Zane Goodrich; and many cousins.
Jaxon was welcomed into Heaven by his grandpa Gerald Langley; cousin, Tyler O’Neal; great grandparents, John & Francis Daniels, Paul & Barb Slaughterbeck, and Mary Alice & Leonard Merle Goodrich.
