Jaydra Sidelle Tippetts

July 26, 1999 - February 17, 2023

Jaydra Sidelle Tippetts 23, born July 26, 1999 passed away on February 17th 2023 of an asthma attack and drug overdose. Jaydra was due on the 15th which was her best friend and biggest supporter’s birthday (her Gramcracker's) but Jaydra was not ready and decided to be 2 weeks late.

Jaydra was so smart and could write her alphabet before the age of 3. She could spot the tiniest thing on the floor and make you laugh hysterically. At the age of 2 she named her imaginary friend Mr. Picklebee and none of us could figure out where she came up with that name but still makes us laugh to this day. Jaydra was the kindest person and loved everyone she met with all her heart. She did whatever she could to help those around her, even in her death by being an organ donor and saving lives. Everyone that knew her was her best friend. You never saw Jaydra without an animal by her side. Her current dog Rue is beside himself with sadness and does not understand where she is but her sister is taking great care of him. She loved animals and babies and was always around to babysit and pet sit. When her sister was born she did not talk much and Jaydra always knew what she wanted and was saying. She always protected her sister and was her strongest advocate.

Jaydra struggled with addiction throughout her life and had severe asthma from the age of five. She is now free from pain and addiction reunited with Yankee, T.P. for short and all the other pets she was constantly bringing home to me. Jaydra will be remembered by many and deeply missed by her family and friends.

She is survived by her momma Danielle Barteaux her dad Jady Tippetts (Marley Bramble) her sister Nerva, her Gpa and Gramcrackers Sue and Garry Forsgren. A lot of aunts, uncles, and cousins and so many friends. A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, February 25, 2023 from 4:00 PM until 7:00 PM at Starks Funeral Parlor, 3651 South 900 East, Salt Lake City. Guests are encouraged to use the parking and entrance on the north side of the building.
