In Memory of Kendrea and Baby Ellis By Ryan Richardson

Dear Community, Family, and Friends,

As most of you know now, Kendrea and her sweet baby boy Ellis departed this life on Tuesday, 6/10/25.

We are all in a state of shock and really trying to grapple with this reality. We have been overwhelmed and deeply grateful for the outpouring of love and support pouring from everyone. ♥️

Please send prayers for Kendrea and her baby boy Ellis. They are now in transition and walking the spirit road…traveling the ancestral fires awaiting them.

Kendrea and Baby Ellis brought joy and laughter to friends and family and will be greatly missed!

Kendrea struggled with mental health issues and ultimately was overcome by the journey of life. Although we don’t know the time nor hour, we must commit as a community, as a family, as a friend to always uplift others. Some times the biggest, most beautiful smiles hide the darkest and most dreadful pains. So the family of Kendrea and Ellis would say to you: “Live life, Love Life, Hug someone, & always tell your loved ones that you love them”.

If you can find it in your heart to contribute, the money contributed will help to pay for funeral/memorial expenses for Kendrea and Baby Ellis.

Thank you for your thoughts and prayers!
