Reyna Marielle Wilson

16 years old

Born on May 5th, 2006 in Mazatenango, Guatemala

Died on March 22, 2023

We lost our special girl who was important to so many.  She was a daughter, sister, granddaughter, niece, cousin, friend, and teammate. Reyna surrendered her fight with mental illness and we take comfort in knowing that her heart and mind will never hurt again. Reyna adored her cats and was a kind and gentle soul who was accepting of all people. A loving sister, she leaves behind two brothers, Lukas and Niko. A caring cat mama, she leaves behind her 2 cats Finnagen and Fiona. She was a gifted artist and her passion for music was like no other. She was incredibly strong, both physically and mentally. She was a gifted athlete and had a passion for exercise and sports. The relationships she built through her sports teams gave her enjoyment and strength. We greatly appreciate all of the coaches, teammates, friends and families who loved our girl and supported her. The disease of mental illness robbed Reyna of the long and happy life she deserved.
