Deedra LaShun Hayes

Deedra LaShun Hayes was more than family—she was a fighter, a radiant light, and a source of warmth that wrapped around everyone she met like the embrace of a lifelong friend. Her strength was not only in the battles she faced but in the way she carried joy, laughter, and love into every room.

She gave us courage when we felt weak, hope when we felt lost, and comfort when we needed it most. Her hugs were more than gestures—they were reminders that we were never alone.

Though her physical presence has left us, her light will never dim. It shines in the memories we hold, in the lessons she taught us about resilience and love, and in the legacy of kindness she leaves behind.

I will miss her deeply, but I will carry her spirit forward—fighting with courage, shining with love, and embracing others with the warmth she so freely gave.
Love
