They asked not to speak about the attack, but instead, focus on Jaysiah's life and the loving little boy who would light up a room.
"When I would come to my sister's house, he was very quiet, but he would always have a big smile on his face, and it would bring one to your face," said Rocio Lopez.
Jaysiah's family says they appreciate the community's kindness and generosity.
