Jasmine lovingly nicknamed “Jay” or “Jay Bird” by her family, entered the world on December 4, 1998, to parents Celeste Rosebud Wimberly and Michael Wimberly. Growing up in St. Petersburg, Florida, Jasmine showcased a free spirit. She had a smile that would light up a room and always exuded positive energy. Jasmine brought a spark of joy with her bubbly personality, reminding us of all that life’s greatest moments are meant to be cherished and savored rather than taken too seriously. At the age of 13, Jasmine relocated to Texas with her mother, Celeste. She was always determined to be great. She graduated from Canyon High School in Texas in 2017. Throughout her career, she demonstrated a deep passion for healthcare, having worked as a CNA and recently earning her phlebotomy certification. Throughout her adult life, Jasmine maintained her vibrant spirit, embracing moments by the river, attending concerts, cherishing time with her pet snake, Ezekiel. Jasmine served as a bright light in everyone’s life, her journey resembled that of a butterfly spreading its wings wide open to fully experience everything life had to give. She is preceded in death by her uncle, James Rosebud. She is survived by: Her mother: Celeste Rosebud-Wimberly; Father: Michael Wimberly and wife, Wanda; Siblings: Danielle Kelly, Akishia Wimberly and Maurice Wimberly; Aunts: Debbie Rosebud-Dennis and Angela Duncan; Uncles: Tyrone Rosebud, Phillip Rosebud and wife, Marie, Steffon Rosebud and wife Amy and Darrel Rosebud; Together with an abundance of cousins, other relatives and friends

Although I never got to meet Jasmine, I heard wonderful things about her from her boyfriend Caleb (my nephew). I am heartbroken that their lives ended so tragically while they were both still so young. Jasmine’s family is in my prayers as we both mourn the loss of these two young souls. Sending love from our family to yours,
Tiffany Huntington
