We are deeply saddened to announce the tragic passing of Saiveon Hopkins, known professionally as Jay Hefner, on September 8, 2024, at the age of 24.

Some of Jay Hefner’s friends have begun to leave tributes on his X profile @JayHefnerxxx.

Jay Hefner, a rising star in the adult entertainment industry, was beloved by many, both personally and professionally.

His untimely death occurred in Lincoln, NE, during a family visit. In a heartbreaking act of bravery, Jay Henfer lost his life while trying to protect a family member from violence. He was visiting his loved ones to celebrate a birthday and was planning to return to his home in Ontario, CA, shortly after.

He was more than his profession; he was a devoted father to his 10-month-old daughter and a selfless caregiver to his terminally ill mother and siblings. His light shone brightest in the lives of those he touched with his compassion and love.

His family is now faced with not only the grief of losing their beloved son, but also the financial strain of arranging his final farewell. A GoFundMe page has been set up to support his family in this difficult time, and any contributions are greatly appreciated. Please consider donating or sharing the link to help ease the family’s burden during this devastating period.
