Jackson John Donovan Sunshine

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Jackson Ryan Donavan Sunshine of Fishing Lake First Nation, a beloved son, father, brother, cousin, and friend, who left us far too soon on October 7, 2025, at the age of 33 years old.

Born on August 1, 1992, in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Jackson brought love, laughter, and warmth to everyone who knew him. He was the kind of person who would give you the shirt off his back without thinking twice, always ready to help, always there when it mattered, and never asking for anything in return. Jackson's generosity was quiet but constant, and his kindness ran deep. Though he faced his own struggles, he still had the biggest heart and chose to keep showing up for his family, his friends, and anyone who needed him. His selflessness, his strength, and his love will always be remembered. He will be deeply missed but never forgotten.

He was predeceased by his mother, Bridget Sunshine; his sister, Katherine Sunshine; his grandmother, Mary Ann Sunshine; his grandfather, Dennis John Bigsky; and his aunt, Fraulein Sunshine.

Jackson is survived by his common-law partner, Dakota Kay; his loving father, Ryan Cyr; his step-mom, Celinda Eashappie; his beautiful children, Ezekial, Malikai, Octavian, and Jupiter; his children's mother, Kymberlee (Gurly) Cote; his mother in-law Kimberly Cote; his siblings, Brandt Sunshine, Autumn Sunshine, Daniell Sunshine, Kendra Sunshine, Andrew Sunshine (Andrea), Latiesha Sunshine (Myles), Fernanda Sunshine (Avory), Anika Sunshine (Danny), Lucan and Sugar Sunshine; his favourite aunt, Angel Sunshine; his favourite uncle, Lucan Sunshine (Dawn); his cousins Trinity Sunshine, Tristina Sunshine, Rosa Sunshine, Ethan Sunshine, Willow Sunshine, and Sage Sunshine. He also leaves to mourn numerous cousins, nieces, nephews, aunties, uncles and friends.
