Obituary

With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Mason (May May) James Tippmann, who was called home by the Lord on April 23rd, 2026, at the age of three years old.

May May was a gentle soul, deeply loved by his parents, Katie and Josh Tippmann, and by all who were blessed to know him. Though his time with us was far too short, he leaves us with a lifetime of unforgettable memories. Mason had a laugh that could melt even the heaviest of hearts, a smile that lit up every room he entered, and a silly nature that made it impossible not to love him. His delicate, kind-hearted, joyful spirit leaves a mark that will never fade.

He found pure happiness in the simplest moments of life - tending to his chickens, serving as his dad’s little shadow and asking a million questions, playing endlessly with all his cousins, snuggling up to watch SpongeBob with his big brother and dad, and proudly being his mom’s constant little sidekick. Every memory of Mason is filled with warmth, laughter, and a profound love so pure it will live on forever.

Mason will be treasured always and deeply missed by his loving parents, Katie and Josh Tippmann; his big brother, Josh Jr.; his baby brother, George; his grandparents, Lori and Bob Eddy, and Kim and John Jr. Tippmann; along with his many devoted aunts, uncles, and cousins whose lives he touched so immensely.

Visitation will take place on April 30th, 2026, at Divine Mercy Funeral Home of Cedar Canyon from 4pm to 8pm, where loved ones are invited to come together, share memories, and surround one another with love in remembrance of sweet Mason. A Mass of Catholic Burial will be held on May 1st, 2026, at St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church, as family and friends gather to honor and celebrate Mason’s beautiful life in the comforting presence of the Lord. There will be no visitation prior to the Mass.

Flowers or donations to Kate’s Kart in honor of Mason’s memory are deeply appreciated.

Though we grieve this unimaginable loss, we hold close the energy and light Mason brought into our lives. That love will remain with us always.
