Misty spent her childhood in Sioux Falls with bother her parents, and eventually moved to an acreage in rural Hartford with her mother Jolynn, and her Step Father Ron Rost.

When misty was a child she enjoyed either getting her younger brothers Chris, and LT in trouble, or joining in on the fun. She very much enjoyed her time at the farm. Misty had a bond with Ron unlike any other, and would often talk of the fond memories she had of him.

Life wasn't always easy for Misty, and her family. However, Misty always had this amazing way of pulling everyone together, no matter what, and helping find a way to persevere no matter the battle.In 2002 Misty became a mother to her oldest son Jordan. She would be blessed with three more children to follow; Adrianna, Destiny, and Jerome. She very much enjoyed being a mother, and loved her children dearly. Their success, and happiness in life was her ultimate goal.

Misty found herself with addiction struggles, and fought hard to stay sober, In January 2013 Misty found her faith at Restoration Baptist Church and began her journey to sobriety. It wasn't always an easy battle, however her faith in her Lord never waivered.

On November 4th 2020 at 38 years old Misty went home to be with The Lord. Although her death was sudden and unexpected her family is at peace knowing that she passed away sober, faithful, and happy.

My name is Bev Gonzales. I just found out today about her passing & wish I could have been there with her by her side.
I knew Misty for many years. I had her work for me off & on through the years when I had my busy. We worked together & she was always fun to work with. We have been neighbors. We were there for each other through hard times, good times.
I always knew through the years she struggled through different things in her life, but yet she so much of the time, put on the facade of being happy & she was such a loving & caring person, funny & fun. I was looking for her today on fb to catch up on things & saddened to find that she has passed away. I will miss my friend. A Beautiful girl, inside & out. RIP My Friend.

My husband and I worked with Misty at Godfathers for quite awhile. She was always fun to talk to and she loved her kids dearly. She was someone you could always count on for a laugh. She was too young. So sad to hear she is gone.

I met her at a church I attended about 10 yrs. ago, when her children were real young. Then I moved out of town and wasn't able to keep in touch. I am so sad to see that she has passed. Glad to know that she is with Jesus, tho.
