From Jones Funeral Home.
Tristan Samuel Nixon, 18 months, of Winchester, VA left his Mommas arms and woke up in the arms of Jesus on Wednesday afternoon, October 17, 2012 at Childrens National Medical Center, Washington, DC, after a long and courageous fight.
Tristan was born March 25, 2011 in Winchester, VA, the son of Keith Nixon and Paula Bunner Nixon.
