Jaden Alexander Matlock, of Bolingbrook, was a child of God; cherished son of Jason and Sara, beloved grandson to Al and Holly Matlock and Tom and Susan Memmel, great-grandson of Diane (and the late Rich) Weretka, dear brother of Jacob and Logan, fond nephew of Justin (Chrissy) Matlock, Jennifer (Claus) Raddatz, Kristen (Jack) Lezza, Michael (Niki) Memmel, adored boyfriend to Kaylee Pannek, cousin and friend to so many, and missed by all.

Jaden's faith was important to him, and he was active in church including a missions trip to Costa Rica this past summer and helping with soccer camps. He set track records in middle school, played football, basketball and ran track in high school. Jaden loved hanging out with his many different circles of friends. GBHeheXd was his gamer tag and he loved to play League of Legends especially on a team with his cousins. He was passionate about cars and motorcycles just like his dad. He loved to make people laugh, could talk to anyone, and made lasting impressions wherever he went.

Jaden was excited to swear in with the United States Air Force on Monday, the 26th.
