Heyloe Spanks Obituary
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved, Heyloe Spanks, who left us far too soon on Thursday, August, 14th at the age of 15.
Heyloe was a bright light in the lives of everyone who knew her. Despite the challenges she faced, she lived a life full of joy, curiosity, and love. Her infectious laugh and warm, mischievous smile could brighten the darkest day. She taught us patience, unconditional love, and the importance of finding happiness in food and music.
She is survived by her loving mother, Kynetha Spanks, guardian Sadie Bennett, and special friend, Butch Martin. Her great-aunt, Essie Foley, her sister, Sabrina Hinson, her favorite cousin, Georgie, and her grandparents, George and Joanne Day. Heyloe leaves behind many aunts, uncles, cousins, and a large circle of friends who adored her. Heyloe's memory will be cherished forever as a reminder of the beautiful, unique spirit she was.
A funeral service to celebrate Heyloe's life will be held at Families First Cremation and Funeral Home. Thursday August 28th at 1116 Parsons Ave. Columbus, Ohio 43206 11a for visitation and 1pm for service.
