La'Nadia Burks Obituary

She was born on December 16, 2002, in Louisville, Kentucky to Kenneth Burks and Amber Ray. She is preceded in death by her mother, Amber Nicole Ray and great-grandmother, Katherine Reed. La'Nadia was a loving mother of one precious and adorable daughter, with a pure heart. A beautiful person inside and out, with her perfectly shaped almond eyes, outgoing bubbly personality, and infectious laugh.
La'Nadia's family knew her to be goofy and spontaneous. While her friends knew her to be the life of the party and always fun to be around. Yet everyone knew her passion for singing and dancing. With an amazing voice and a lot of rhythm, you could not escape the joy she exuded. Her passing leaves a void that will never be filled, as all that knew her will be deeply impacted.
