Desiree’ was born on December 15, 1998, and left this life suddenly on September 13, 2018, due to a fatal auto accident. She was full of life and her mother’s heart, soul, and best friend. Desiree’ was a 2017 Parkway graduate, was on the swim team, ran cross country, and was in the Talented Arts Program, she had such a gift and love for music and art. Desiree’ also had a love for food and even spoke of becoming a chef one day and there wasn’t any food she wouldn’t try, but boy could she put away the crawfish and a donut. She loved to travel with her mom and had hopes one day to travel the world. Desiree’ was a beautiful young woman with hopes and dreams that was taken too soon. She will always be in our thoughts, prayers and our hearts.
