In Loving Memory of Braeden James Waller September 8, 2006 - February 21, 2025With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved son and brother, Braeden James Waller, who was called by God to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven on February 21, 2025. Although we were not ready to say goodbye, we take comfort in knowing that Braeden is now in a much better place. While we will mourn his loss every day, we find comfort in the truth that we will be reunited with him in heaven.Braeden was a 2024 graduate of Gateway Academy, with plans to attend the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY, where he was excited to pursue his passion for food. He found pleasure in both creating and enjoying quality meals. Braeden also had a love for sports, spending time on the water, bonfires, and, most of all, hanging out with his friends. The moments he cherished most were those spent with his brothers, Skyler and Trace.Born on September 8, 2006, in Moultrie, GA, Braeden was the son of David and Alicia Waller. He is survived by his brothers Trace Waller, Skyler Waller, and Harrison Waller (Shelley). Braeden also leaves behind his paternal grandparents Wayne and Jane Waller, and maternal grandparents James and Marion Evans. He is further survived by his uncles Ryan Evans, Karl Waller (Pam), and his aunt Jana Tate (Richard), along with many cherished aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.Braeden will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. Even through his own struggles, Braeden shared his faith with others, encouraging them to seek the Lord. The knowledge that Braeden was secure in his salvation brings us comfort. While our hearts ache to be with him, we know he is rejoicing with the Lord. His memory will forever live in our hearts.Visitation and Service Information: Friends and family are invited to attend a visitation on Saturday, March 1, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM at Parkview Baptist Church, 268 NW Lake Jeffery Rd, Lake City, FL 32055..
