Born on June 11, 2023, in Brookhaven, MS, Kaelyn's time on this earth was far too brief.
Her infectious smile and gentle spirit touched the hearts of everyone she encountered.

She is preceded in death by her maternal great-grandfather, Ronnie Joe Watts, her paternal great-grandparents, Sammy and Pat Barnes and Frankie Louise Buffington.
Kaelyn's spirit will continue to live on in the hearts of her loved ones; they include, her parents, Dillan Barnes and Ragen Watts of Silver Creek; her sisters, Karcey Barnes, Kyleigh Barnes, Raelan Barnes; her brother, Bryson Barnes, all of the home; maternal grandparents, Glen and Amanda Pace of Bogue Chitto; paternal grandparents, Bo and Dee Dee Barnes of Silver Creek; maternal great-grandparents, Randy and Gena Landry of Brookhaven; paternal great-grandparents, Raymond "Buff" Buffington and Cecil and Rosemary Ward.
