Funeral arrangements for Jayden Spicer announced

Kentucky State Police

Visitation will be held from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. this Thursday at Breathitt Funeral Home, with the funeral immediately following.

The ten-year-old was reported missing in Breathitt County by his mother on August 5th. A week later, his body was found in a shallow grave in a wooded area about 15 miles from his home. Spicer's mother has been charged with manslaughter.

Donations have poured in from the community and across the country to pay for Jayden's service, custom-made Spiderman-themed casket, and headstone.

Family members say he will be laid to rest alongside his grandmother.
