It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Deandra, who left us on August 19, 2024 at the age of 32. Deandra was a cherished daughter, sister, mother, and friend to many. Deandra was born on January 13, 1992 in Columbus, Ohio raised in the infamous Brittany Hills (BHP) and attended Beechcroft High School, where she excelled in many activities. From a young age, Deandra displayed a passion for being a part of her community, which remained a central part of impacting her family and peers. Deandra pursued her career in technology and cosmetology as a natural hairstylist, working at numerous businesses for years. She was known for her dedication, hard work, and the positive influence she had on her colleagues and the community.  

Among her many accomplishments, she was multi-talented. There wasn’t anything she couldn’t fix, create, or build. In 2015, Deandra became a devoted mother to De’Andre Brigham with father (Dewayne Bradley). Together they built a loving home filled with joy and laughter. The memories they shared will always be cherished by De’Andre as he will always be anointed while moving forward in life; De’Andres’ now personal Angel watching over him and protecting him throughout all his endeavors will remain in spirit. 

Deandra had a gift for uplifting and projecting light into any room she stood in. She was the life of the party as she created countless memories cherished by many. Deandra will be remembered for her loving and giving heart, many crowns she touched, her authentic genuine personality, her love for the kids, her outspoken outburst, notorious comments, and legendary cooking, she touched the lives of many and her legacy will continue through the hearts and minds of those who knew her. Her love, wisdom, and unwavering support will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
