Jasmine Burrell

Nov 2,1988 - Oct 23, 2022
Collage of Jasmine Burrell with selfie-style portraits, centered around her and her son.

Jasmine was a one-of-a-kind soul who made her name synonymous with being unapologetically yourself. Chosen from the cherished scent of her grandmother, her name represented a "different kind of love"—one that anchored her through life’s many ups and downs. She was a woman of immense strength and fierce resilience, a "bright and strong" force of nature who fought her way back from every downfall with her head held high.

She embraced her identity completely, expressing her vibrant soul through a love of fashion and a fearless attitude that remained untouched by the opinions of others. While she loved her parents deeply, her family was her heartbeat, and her world truly revolved around her son. The profound, unwavering bond they shared remains her greatest source of pride.

Jasmine’s true legacy was her extraordinary heart; even when navigating her own difficult path, she would selflessly set her struggles aside to lift up another. She was a dreamer who always reached for more, regardless of the obstacles in her way. Though she is no longer with us physically, her spirit is a constant presence, kept alive every day within our hearts, souls, and minds.
