One thing to know about Little Miss. Rea, is that she could light up any room with her big, beautiful smile and contagious laugh. She loved the magic of bubbles and the thrill of chasing butterflies. Lylla was crazy about her Maa and sister, even though she sometimes she acted like she couldn't stand her daadaadaa, she loved him deeply. Lylla has a sense of style all her own, whether she was rocking a wild troll hairstyle or her signature little emo hairdo, she wore it with pride. She loved to sing, whether it was a little tune, joyful hum, to just her own sweet sounds her voice brought joy to everyone around her.  Lylla may have been tiny, but she was full of love! Just ask the family cat who often found herself wrapped in one of Lylla's strong tight hugs. Equal parts affection and determination. 

In Lylla's 18 precious months on this Earth, she accomplished so much. Miss. Rea learned how to walk by 8 months old. She proudly grew 6 tiny teeth. She mastered the words "hi", "bye", "backpack", and "trash." She always made sure her trusty little toothbrush was packed and ready to go on her next adventure.  Rea perfected the art of stealing food, even when she had her own. She had knack of swiping phones, game controllers, and remotes like a true professional. But more than anything else, the most important thing she ever stole was our hearts, with her big sparkling green eyes and her unforgettable heartfelt smile. Lylla will be missed by all those who knew her and she will forever be loved in their hearts. 

Funeral services will be held on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, at 10 a.m. at Prairie Haven Cemetery Chapel. Committal burial to follow at baby land.
