Lindsey Alyssa D'Ercole

Lindsey Alyssa D’Ercole, 28, passed away on December 8, 2021 after a lifelong battle with Crohn’s disease, and Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency. Lindsey fought a valiant battle for many years, but the last two months, her body just wasn’t strong enough after a brief illness to recover. Lindsey was born on October 18, 1993 in Baltimore, Maryland.

Lindsey was an avid animal advocate and they all held a special place in her heart. She was always rescuing a stray or five. She will be missed by her cats, Onyx, and Harmony and her dogs, Sadie and Teenie and honorable mention to Clutch.

Lindsey advocated for many other people with Inflammatory Bowel Disease whether it meant lending an ear to listen and guide them or just someone who needed a friend. She was the brightest star in the sky of many peoples’ lives. She may not be on this earth now, but she has left her mark and her spirit with many that she left behind. If you were her friend, she would do anything for you and if you weren’t her friend, she would reach out to you so you did become her friend. She had a smile that would light up a room and a personality to match. Lindsey was studying Accounting at Chattahoochee Technical College.
