So sad to hear about the death of Jackson Odell. We met years ago when we shot a Spray Racer commercial together. Ran into him numerous times over the years. Such a nice guy. RIP.

Modern Family actress Ariel Winter released a statement on Odell’s passing shortly after the news broke.
“Devastated to hear about the passing of Jackson Odell,” Winter’s message read. “I knew Jackson since we were 12 years old, and he even appeared on Modern Family. We didn’t talk much as we entered into our high school years, but I’m glad I got to spend time with him before his end.”

“The Odell family has lost our beloved son and brother, Jackson Odell, on Friday,” the statement read. “He will always be a shining light and a brilliant, loving and talented soul. He had so much more to share. Our family will always carry that truth forward. Our wish is that the rest of the world who knew and loved him does so as well. We are now going to try to make sense of our immeasurable loss privately. We will not be making any more statements.”
