Jaxon was born on March 5, 2007, in Overland Park, Kansas, to Steve and Alexis (Eisel) Bechtel; and spent his youth surrounded by the warmth and love of family. A proud member of the Harrisonville High School Class of 2025, Jaxon graduated with his high school diploma just months before his passing. He was a talented athlete with a passion for sports, particularly baseball, which he adored. He also played football, demonstrating a competitive spirit and a love for teamwork. Beyond the field, Jaxon found joy in the simple pleasures of life, including fishing and cruising around town in his cherished 1996 Ford Ranger truck.
Jaxon contributed to his community through his work at Midwest Lumber, where he was a dedicated employee in the delivery department. His determination and strong work ethic were admired by colleagues and customers alike, and he took pride in every aspect of his role.

His loss leaves an irreplaceable void in the hearts of everyone who had the honor of knowing him.
