Johnathan Wesley Aikens, 25, was born in Amarillo, Texas on February 9, 1996, to Stephen Aikens and Crystal Carman. He left our earth on May 22, 2021.
A Memorial Serice will be held at 11:00 a.m., Tuesday, May 25, at Christian Heritage Church, 900 S. Nelson St.
Johnathan never met a stranger, and treated everyone as family. He has lived in many areas of Texas, and was a Rockstar every place he ever went. He was an amazing athlete, and a pretty fair student when he chose to be. Anyone that truly knows Johnathan knew he was going to do what he set his mind to even as a small child.
He is proceeded in death by his father Stephen Aikens, his Ya-Ya John Sheckells, and his maternal and paternal great grandparents.
He is survived by his mother, Crystal Carman and her husband Rodney; his brother, Tyler Dean Cooper; his grandmother, Sharon Mae Aikens; Cindy Read Zamzow and her husband Maurice, as well as numerous uncles, aunts, cousins, and many, many friends.
Psalms 34.18
The Lord is near the brokenhearted, and saves the crushed in spirit.
Psalms 23 1-6
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
Such a good guy, would give you the shirt right off his back, we will miss you forever johnathan
I met Johnathon at the old Three Rivers high school building when I was subbing. He was kind and welcoming in his presence. It hurts my heart to know he was fighting such a painful inner battle. Though he probably didn’t know it, he had many who would have never wanted him to be gone so soon. May he now be at peace and I know happy to be with his dad again. With a son of my own, my prayers are with his family.
My deepest sympathies to the family.
I didn’t know Jonathan like so much of my family.
But i have felt your pain before.
I pray for the healing of the hole in your heart
May God grant you strength and eventually peace.
