Fox News
The family of an 8-year-old boy who died as a result of the Waukesha, Wisconsin, Christmas parade tragedy is encouraging children who attend Thursday’s memorial services to wear baseball jerseys in his honor.
The third-grader died Nov. 23, two days after the horrific events at the Christmas celebration, where suspect Darrell Brooks Jr. allegedly drove his maroon Ford Escape SUV through the barricades and into a crowd of parade-goers.
"Our sweet little boy is now under the care of Jesus," his obituary states.
Jackson was the only child to have died from the tragedy. The five other victims have been identified as Tamara Durand, 52; Jane Kulich, 52; LeAnna Owen, 71; Virginia Sorenson, 79; and Wilhelm Hospel, 81.
