Kylee Leniz Obituary

Kylee Leniz

February 19, 2004 – November 1, 2020

On November 1, 2020 Heaven gained another angel. Kylee was born in Elko, NV on February 19, 2004 to Shannon Sanders and Inaki Leniz.

Kylee enjoyed spending time with family and friends. She loved hanging out at the pool with her cousins, and weekends at the lake with her besties. Whether it was nights at the gym playing volleyball with her mom and sisters, or following her dad to the ball fields she always had a beautiful smile on her face. She was always helping out; either helping her grandparents in the garden, or covering a shift at work, she was there.

Her happiness affected everyone she was around, especially her sisters, brother's nieces and nephews. Hi Hi you will truly be missed!

Shannon, Inaki and family: my prayers and thoughts have been with you every day since Kylee was taken from you. I remembered Kylee immediately when I helped John coach our volleyball team several years ago. Shannon I remember how you stepped up to help and how involved you were with your girls. I can still hear John saying Kylee`s name. There are no words to express my sorrow for your loss. I was able to attend Kylee`s candlelight vigil and it was absolutely beautiful and well attended. Kylee is looking down on you now as your angel I pray precious memories will be your comfort. Always remember she would not want you to suffer and my belief is she is in a beautiful place, one we can only imagine it´s beauty. I love youAnd God bless you all
