I have been knowing Raven since she was about thirteen. She was always talking to me when she lived next door on Federal. Her and Keedy were my girls. I used to go visit her and Mrs Nora Jean and them as well. She was a beautiful, smart, funny, good spirited young lady. She will truly be missed by me. Her and her family will forever be in my heart. God got an Angel. Rest on my girl, God got u now.

I came to know Raven through my job at Ochsner's lab and feel very fortunate to have known her. She was a great coworker, a kind and gentle person. I never heard her complain or say anything unkind about anyone. I was blessed to have known her, and she will be greatly missed.
My heartfelt condolences to her family.
