Her father, Dominique came regularly from Hungary and they spent many days interfacing with her little sister, Rachel. She attended Goldsmith Schiffman Elementary School and was on the A-B honor roll. She was a very talented artist and loved swimming, cooking, softball and basketball. Most of all, she loved her family and friends. She was sweet and spunky, quiet and loving, playful and silly, shy and sassy, courageous and adventurous, fearless and loved life. Jaden Coppens had a unique style that was all her own. We will feel Jaden in the little moments, the stories and the familiar spaces she stepped in and out of. She will forever be a part of us. As sure as the sun will rise and the stars will shine, our love for her will be everlasting. She was preceded in death by her paternal grandparents, Antoine and Huguette Coppens; maternal grandmother, Jeannette Slater; and uncle, Jean Marie Coppens.
She is survived by her father, Dominique Coppens; mother, Andrea Coppens; brother, Adam Coppens; sisters, Jasmine and Journey Coppens and Rachel Coppens; grandparents, Robson and Lucy Slater; uncles, Henri Coppens and Didier Coppens; aunts, Isabelle Coppens and Suzanne Horn; and many other family members in Alabama, Arkansas, Belgium, California, Canada, England, Hungary and Switzerland.
