Discovering Freedom and Healing In Life
Kierra went to be with Jesus last night around 9:00PM.
We are heartbroken but so thankful that she is indescribably happy.
Funeral arrangments will follow. Right now we are looking at a Sunday funeral.

Oh, Anita! I just want to reach out and hug you long and hard! I’m so, so sorry for you guys and at the same time smiling through my tears as I think of Kierra dancing and playing and laughing the way she’s been longing to all these years. I feel sure Jesus is holding her close and I pray you will feel Him as He wraps up your little family and holds them close, too. So much love. So many prayers!

Oh Anita,
I just learned about sweet sweet Kierra’s journey to heaven. My heart aches for you as you grieve the loss of your beautiful daughter, at the same time my heart rejoices in the knowledge that Kierra is living with GOD in eternity free from all things medical! As our daughter is on her journey to heaven, I smile at the thought of our very loved little girls playing together someday soon.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Love,
All the Marletts
