In Loving Memory of Cameron Gerard, 34, and Alexandria Jones, 33 Two Beautiful Lives Gone Too Soon
With hearts full of sorrow and tenderness, we come together to honor the memories of 34-year-old Cameron Gerard of Beaumont and 33-year-old Alexandria Jones of Lumberton, whose lives ended far too soon in a tragic crash on Interstate 10 early Monday morning. The Texas Department of Public Safety has formally identified both victims, and today, we pause to remember who they were, the lives they lived, and the profound impact they leave behind.
In the early, still hours of the morning, fate delivered a heartbreaking blow when the vehicle carrying Cameron and Alexandria was involved in a devastating collision along I-10. Both were pronounced deceased at the scene, leaving their families, friends, coworkers, and communities forever changed. Their passing represents not just the loss of two individuals, but the loss of two vibrant hearts, two stories unfinished, and two futures full of promise.
Though this tragedy occurred in an instant, the memories of Cameron and Alexandria stretch across years β woven into the lives of those who loved them, laughed with them, supported them, and cherished them.
π Remembering Cameron Gerard (1991β2025)
Cameron was a beloved son, friend, public servant, and community member whose presence carried warmth and positivity wherever he went. Known for his constant smile and kind spirit, Cameron served as a correctional officer at the Jefferson County Jail, where he earned immense respect from colleagues and leadership alike.
He was admired for his dedication, compassion, and steady sense of responsibility. Cameron wasnβt simply doing a job β he was living a life of service, contributing to his community in a way that truly mattered. Sheriff Zena Stephens once called him βone of my personal recruits,β a testament to the promise he showed and the heart he led with.
Beyond his work, Cameron was deeply rooted in his family and community. His family owns Gerardβs Barbeque Diner on Fannett Road, a place where the values of kindness, hard work, and generosity run deep β values Cameron embodied each and every day.
His loss leaves an emptiness that is felt not only by those who knew him personally, but by all who understand the kind of light he brought into the world.
π Remembering Alexandria Jones (1992β2025)
Alexandria, at just 33 years old, leaves behind a legacy of love, resilience, and grace. Known to those close to her as a caring soul, Alexandria touched countless lives with her gentle heart, her uplifting spirit, and her unwavering warmth.
She was someone who loved deeply, gave freely, and carried an inner strength that inspired everyone around her. Whether through her friendships, her work, or her family, Alexandria had a way of making people feel seen, valued, and supported. She brought joy into ordinary days and comfort into difficult ones.
Her passing is profoundly heartbreaking, leaving her loved ones holding tightly to the memories they shared β moments filled with laughter, conversations, dreams, and the everyday beauty of simply knowing her. To her family and friends, Alexandria was a blessing, and her absence is a pain beyond measure.

As the communities of Beaumont and Lumberton mourn, hearts are united in grief and compassion. Two families must now navigate the unimaginable β not just the suddenness of this loss, but the deep emotional wounds left behind.

Today, we honor:
