Houston of Jesup; two daughters, Tracy Tyre of Jesup and Cassie Ingersoll of Savannah;  one brother, Gerald Houston of Jesup; grandchildren, Caleb, Michael, Sabastian and Sophia and great grandchildren, Zoey and McKinzey. Numerous nieces and nephews including a very special niece, Melanie Houston and her children, Jayda, Alexis and Tristen, nephews, Bradley and Clayton and niece, Summer also survive along with a host of extended family members and friends too numerous to mention.
