Kylea’ Cecilia Sterner, 33, of Weatherford, Texas, passed away in January 2026.
Kylea’ was born on December 1, 1992, in Galveston, Texas, to Angel Colene Walker and Joseph Paul Sterner. She was a longtime resident of Weatherford and left a lasting impression on everyone who knew her.
Kylea’ was preceded in death by her grandparents, Juanita Kershaw, Jerry Rodaway Sr., and C.L. Martin.
Kylea’ is survived by her parents, Angel Walker and her husband, Chris, and Joe Sterner and his wife, Monya; her sisters, MacKenzie Spragg and her husband, Teagan, and Korie Fuller and her husband, Hunter; and her three daughters, Gabby, Brantley, and Cora, who each held a deeply important place in her heart. She is also survived by many aunts, uncles, nephews, cousins, and friends who will continue to carry her memory forward.
Kylea’ lived with intensity and heart. She moved through the world in her own way, on her own terms, and left a lasting impression everywhere she went.
She had a quick wit and a natural sense of humor. Her laugh was unmistakable, and her timing was perfect. Kylea’ was open-minded, deeply empathetic, and genuinely curious about people. She listened without judgment and had a way of holding space for others, even when she was carrying a lot herself. She could be stubborn, but never closed off, and those closest to her lovingly called her a knucklehead, a name she wore with confidence.
Music was one of the places Kylea’ felt most herself. When her music was playing, you knew she was nearby. It was expressive and emotional, a way for her to feel things fully and honestly, without filtering or apology.
Kylea’ expressed who she was through the way she dressed and the things she surrounded herself with. Her style was fearless and intentional. She gravitated toward meaningful objects, crystals, rocks, designs, and small personal treasures that traveled with her and made any space feel more like hers. She also loved cooking for people. Making food and watching others enjoy it was one of the ways she showed care and connection.
She was a loving big sister with a playful streak. She loved board games, singing, dancing, and doing things purely for the joy of it. She had a vivid imagination and once convinced her siblings she had a twin sister named Kiki who lived in the attic, a story she committed to completely.
Kylea’ was also a daughter who knew exactly how to push her parents’ buttons and did so with commitment. She loved making them feel awkward, testing boundaries, and keeping things interesting, often just to see their reactions. But no matter how far she pushed, Kylea’ always found her way back. Reconnecting mattered to her, and the bond with her parents remained important and enduring.
Above all, Kylea’ loved her daughters. She was the mother of three girls, each of whom held a deeply important place in her heart. Her love for them was steady, protective, and enduring.
Kylea’ loved her family and the people close to her. Even when life was difficult, she remained open-hearted. She will be remembered for her individuality, her humor, her creativity, and the way she made people feel accepted and understood.
