An unusual obituary published in an Oklahoma newspaper this week honoring of a three-year-old boy who was mauled to death by a pit bull praised him for having a strong 'pimp hand.'

Jordan 'Jo Jo' Collins-Tyson passed away Sunday after a pit bull bit him in the neck while he was in the care of a family friend.

On Monday, The Lawton Constitution, the city’s local paper, came out with an obituary for the mauled toddler.

The heartfelt death notice, written based on information provided by the child's family, ran through all the things the little boy enjoyed doing in his brief life.

'He loved the outdoors and playing in the dirt. He played with trains and always wanted to take a journey on a train. ... He enjoyed the water and loved Spiderman,' the copy read.

But the first paragraph of the written tribute to Jordan closed on an unusual note: 'His uncle Charlie taught him how to keep that pimp hand strong.'

The obituary left it at that without elaborating further on the meaning of the ‘pimp hand’ reference.

According to the Lawton publication, the toddler had a ‘smile that would make your day better' and loved going to wrestling matches with his grandfather every weekend.

The child is survived by his mother, three sisters, a brother and uncles Charles Collins and Jesse Moretz.

Responding police officers had to shoot the dog because he was aggressive toward them

Jordan's father, Charles Tyson, 30, was beaten and shot to death in October 2012 on his front porch, just eight months after his son’s birth, reported The Smoking Gun.

Tragedy struck the Collins-Tyson family again this past weekend.

Lawton Police officers were called to a home in the 500 block of Southwest 17th Street at around 9am last Sunday in response to a report about a dog attack.

When they arrived, police spokesman Capt. Craig Akard said the pet, identified as a pit bull, was aggressive toward them and had to be shot.

Akard said a friend of Jordan's family was babysitting the child and called for help after finding him laying in the home's backyard.
