Ariana Riley Mcilvain, our little fox, was born In Fort Wayne on January 11, 2025, and passed away on January 25, 2025. She was a beloved daughter, sister, granddaughter, and niece.
Ariana graced the world with her presence and brought joy to those around her. Despite her short time here, she was a gift. She brought us together and taught us that life is fleeting and not to forget what's important.
Ariana is survived by her father, Ty Mcilvain; her mother, Shelby Applegate; her big brother, Wesley Applegate; her maternal grandmother, Diane Hall; aunts, Alicia Mcilvain, Crishell Parsons-Mcilvain, Krystal Philips, and Erica Chandler; her uncle, Kent Nagal.
