Tae refers to the sun in Korean. As my son, Jackson was not just the sun to me but to all those who knew him. Jackson TaeSun was the double bright light that brought laughter and joy to all those who basked in his warmth.
Shockingly, fentanyl crushed this radiance in one swoop, vanquishing it from all our lives forever.
