Jayce Dakota Ayres Reilly

With great sadness, we share that Jayce Dakota Ayres Reilly, also known to some as JCDC, born on November 3, 1996, left this earth on September 15, 2025 at the age of 28. Her light was bright, and though it feels dimmer without her here, it will continue to shine through the lives she touched.

Though her time here was far too short, she filled it with laughter, kindness, and an unwavering loyalty to those she loved. Jayce was hilarious and open minded, always thinking of others and making everyone’s day brighter with her humor, and her deep, thoughtful conversations, often with a little oversharing thrown in for good measure.
She was a gifted artist who loved drawing, playing guitar, and was a poet whose creativity was out of this world. Jayce loved music, movies, singing, cars, and mechanics, and she poured her heart into everything she did.

Her generosity knew no limits, if something reminded her of you, she’d buy it, whether she could or not. She loved fiercely, and to be loved by her was an honour. Jayce’s presence was larger than life, and she will be deeply missed by all who knew her. We take comfort knowing she is at peace now, safe, and free.

Jayce will be forever loved and remembered by her son, Stanley; her parents, Kelly Ayres (Todd) and Anna and Bob Skinner; her siblings Amber Moon, Lindsay Moon, Shelby Bellerose (Joe), Brandon Bellerose (Shannara), and Willow Thomas (Gavin), Nick (Diana), Mike (Kacey), Richard. She will also be deeply missed by her niece and nephew, James and Hannah along with her other cherished nieces and nephews; many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends; and all who were lucky enough to know her.

Jayce was predeceased by her father, Bartholomew Travis Moon, and her grandparents Hank and Bernice Ayres, and Bill and Betty Moon.

A celebration of life will be announced at a later date, where family, friends, and loved ones can come together to share space and memories of Jayce.

And on that note, in true Jayce fashion, don’t forget to make better mistakes tomorrow <3
