Jade Evelyn Bruton

Jade was a kind, innocent, joyful and beautiful soul, inside and out. She cared deeply about her friends and family and made it a priority to show her love to them. She always found beauty in everyday life and had a keen eye for making the ordinary, extraordinary. She had a great love and wonder in studying the moon, the stars, mushrooms and trees. Outdoor adventures filled her life. She was an incredibly talented artist who could bring art to life with her photos and sketches. Jade had a passion for cooking, sharing her meals and culinary creations with her loved ones. It brought her immense satisfaction and joy. She planned out her days, weeks, and years to fill her life with fun and making memories. Jade was a friend to many, she was able to give love to and to find the light in anyone she met. She had an infectious laugh, and to know her was to love her. But above all else, she loved her five year old daughter, Rosellie more than life itself. Her little girl was the light of her life and brought more joy to Jade’s life than anything else. She was Rose’s best friend, her mentor, her comfort person, her greatest pride and her sweetest joy. The love between them was a great brightness in the world. Jade was a magical person and is too soon gone from this world. 

She is survived by her sweet young daughter, Rosellie, Her spouse Ryan Pelas, Her loving parents Courtney and Michael Lehman and Shawn Johnson and Lauren Johnson. Her siblings, Logan and Lola will miss her joyful energy and her sarcastic remarks. Her brothers Griffin, Rowan, and Sloan, will miss her guiding presence, now that she has flown. Grandparents Paige and Gary Leslie, and Bonnie with John Johnson too. Their legacy lives on in her, in everything she'd do.”
