Cormani Percel Alston Burnett

Cormani Percel Alston Burnett, born May 9, 2000, touched the lives of many with his steady presence, quick mind, and deep love for his family. A son of Keisha Alston Gordon and Corey Burnett, Cormani carried his family connections proudly and found his greatest joy in his role as father to his son, JaKaiden. Those who knew him remember a young man who cared for his people, laughed easily with friends, and held close the plans he made for his future.

Cormani grew up between home and community, forming bonds that endured into adulthood. Family gatherings, shared stories, and the company of close friends were cornerstones of his life. He is survived by his mother, Keisha Alston Gordon; his father, Corey Burnett; his siblings and extended family; and his son, JaKaiden, who brought him immense happiness. He also leaves many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and friends who will carry forward his memory.

In the weeks before his passing, family and friends gathered to celebrate the small, meaningful moments that reflected who Cormani was—supportive, hopeful, and committed to the people he loved. Those memories—conversations, quiet acts of kindness, and times of shared laughter—will remain with them as treasured reminders of his life.

A viewing and funeral service were arranged by Robinson Funeral Home, Littleton, with a homegoing celebration held at Ivory Hill Baptist Church. In honoring Cormani’s life, family and friends remember him not for the manner of his death but for the relationships he built, the love he showed, and the plans and potential that marked his years. He will be remembered for his devotion to family and for the warmth he offered to those around him.
