Ciera Drache Obituary

CIERA DRACHE Ciera Drache, 20, of Las Vegas, passed away Jan. 31, 2012. She was born Feb. 16, 1991, into a crazy, loving family. She was an amazing older sister, a loving daughter, and the mother to two Boxers. She lived her life to the fullest and truly didn't care what anyone else thought of her. She was one of the funniest people anyone could have had the pleasure of meeting. Her personality and wit couldn't have been more obnoxious or more hilarious. Anybody that truly knows Ciet, knows that she was free. She was the kindest person with the biggest heart humanly possible. She was outstanding in everything she attempted and would've helped anybody in need. Ciera saw the best in everyone and looked for the good in everything, accepting everyone for who they are and everything for what it is. She will be missed greatly by anyone who has had the opportunity to know her. Services will be at 1 p.m. Monday, Feb. 6, at Palm Mortuary, 7400 W. Cheyenne Ave.

When we first made eye contact we both asked one another at the same exact time, "Have we met before?" The time we shared, even though it was brief, had such an impact on my life. I will never forget her laugh, her smile, her blush, and most of all I still have the red Hurley sweatshirt you gave me when I was cold. She is so unique, beautiful, and kindhearted. Her spirit and memory will live on forever.

Eric, I met you last summer; my son Cameron Boatman was friends with Ciera and I came by to meet you so she could come over to our home. Cameron has been gone for 7 months returning home today. I asked him how Ciera was doing as soon as he got home-and calling a mutual friend he found out this horrible news-today. She spent the night at our home on July 3rd as she wanted to go to the Summerlin 4th of July parade with me the next day. I am so very sorry. My heart just aches. She was such a sweet girl; I just adored her-she would help me tidy up around the house... just sit and talk with me... My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to you and your family.

I had pleasure of meeting Ciera during our time at Burke highschool, she was one of my only friends there. Ciera was the kindest, outgoing beautiful person. She was everyone's friend, even the teachers. I'm so sad we had lost contact throughout the years. My heart goes out to her family. Rest in peace beautiful.

Ciera, you touched so many in the brief time we had with you. You must be needed for spreading love and happiness in some other capacity. You were truly your Mother's miracle baby and will remain so in the hearts of many. May your Mom and Dad and Sister and all those that loved you be comforted in knowing you found the peace you sought. We are far away, but loved you much. Love, Aunt Fran and family.

Eric, we share your sorrow more that you will ever know. Our Deepest Sympathy.

There is nothing as fierce as a father's love for his daughter. We are so sorry for your loss as words cannot explain...
You & your family are in our thoughts.

Dear Eric,
It just seems like yesterday you popped your head in my hospital room to see how I was doing as our daughters were delivered at the same time at Sunrise. I can't believe this happened or even begin to imagine what you're going through. This isn't the way it's supposed to be. It's a small circle here and both my girls, Cory and Taylor either met or knew someone who was a friend of both of your daughters. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. We are so deeply sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter and pray you find the strength to begin to face the world again, one day at a time.
Love,
Cheryl, Cory & Taylor Bradley

Ciera Drache... honestly this is so hard to be writing. I remember when I first met you. You and I were destined to pretty much hate each other, when I was dating your old boyfriend. I was scared of death of you, not even knowing who you were yet. When I met you, instead of being critizing and awful to each other. We just were like lets be friends. I loved it. Pretty much every day we had a class together. So, everyday I got to hear your crazy antics about whatever was going on in your mind. Whenever I had a tough day, you had me laughing within five minutes. Your heart was so pure and great. I literally couldn't ever be mad at you for anything. I literally would always want to be around your energy, because it seriously made everyone's day better. You helped me through some very tough times. Whether it be a personal battle or a battle with other girls at school... you always knew the right thing to say, you backed me up, and defended me on all costs. No matter what anyone said to you, you were my friend. For the longest time you were one of my best friends, sadly distance is a cruel thing. I really wish I would have kept better contact with you... every few months was really not enough. I wish I would have known more about what was going on in your life. I was envious of all the friends that came in and out of your life, because I know how incredible of a friend you were. Honestly, you were one of the most loyal friends I have had. I had so many good times with you... times I will never forget. Memories that will be cherished. I mean we were the most hated in class by our teachers because of our constant chatter, we were literally energizer bunnies at all times. It was funny seeing all of our teachers get frusterated because we always had so much to say, you would think people would run out of things to say... but that was never the case with us. That's why your death has truely put a stop on my life, it's hard to be happy knowing that you aren't out there causing peace and happiness... or maybe a little chaotic nonsense too, since you had that wild spirit at heart. I honestly wish a lot, but most of all I wish to you finally having peace. You brought peace to my life, I want you to know that. You changed me, and now I know you're up above looking down at all us little people who envied you. I love and miss you, and will keep preaching that. Stay beautiful Ciera. RIP.

I will always remember spending alot of time with Ciera when we were kids because our dads were best friends..For quite a few years, we lost touch and got back in contact two years ago..over the summer of 2010, we decided to meet up for the first time in years, I was so blessed to have met such a great girl. I will always remember her.

My first memory of Ciera is when she would come in the DSDA and wait for her sister to be done in my Hip Hop or Jazz class. Always smiling, always funny and always caring of her sister. i remember sitting with her and Erica and Crosta in hot tubs and pool parties at most of the dance competitions. Eating pizza and laughing. Both of the girls had a free spirit about them. If it's worth anything, I feel she lived a fulfilled life. Having fun, being care free, traveling, touching many peoples lives in such a positive way is more accomplishments than many can achieve in a long lifetime. I was instantly brought to tears when I learned of what happened. I just remembered her big beautiful smile, My heart is with you Erica and also with your father, your extended family and dear friends. I wish I could be at the memorial service to pay respects to such an awesome girl. But just know that my whole heart, my thoughts and my prayers are with you and your family through this difficult time and for ever. I just remember loving the carefree, funny, caring, talented and ever flowing energy that emanated from both of you. Carry on that torch Erica. Let it burn twice as strong as she will now be your guardian angle until you meet again.

From a beautiful child to the funny, charismatic and generous young woman she became; Ciera's light will shine on in the hearts and memories of those who raised her, were raised with her, and shared the priviledge of knowing her. May the Lord bless you and keep you safe Ciera.
With deepest sympathy.

My first memory of Ciera was of her walking through my classroom door into kindergarten. I remember her walking up to me and saying "Hi, I am Ciera Drache. Ciera was not shy in any way. She had such s big personality for a little girl. She was so smart and such a hard worker. She was always willing to help anyone. I was also lucky enough to get to know her family over many years. She loved to share her many adventures she and her family had taken. You are missed!! You will continue to live on in my heart and in my memories. Barbara Ritchie

It's so hard to know what to say when someone who has left a visible imprint on one's heart leaves this world. My memories of Ciera are both warm and funny. She was a delightful little first grader who worked hard, shared anything with anyone else, and made me laugh with her warmth and wit. When Ciera was in my class in first grade she took a trip to Hawaii. She returned with the best gift for me that she could even imagine - a little bottle filled with teeny tiny colored seashells. She knew that I loved seashells and that I thought seashells were some of the most beautiful part of God's creation. I treasured that gift because I knew that Ciera couldn't possibly imagine going on a trip and not bringing me something. What a sweetheart! Ciera, you're still in my heart! Travel In Peace Sweetheart! I am thinking of you all! Christi Rogers, Jordan, Kyle, and Audrey Denison
