*Obituary
Kiana Shawntae Raelene Hays of Flippin AR., a beloved mother, daughter, and friend, was born in Arcata California on July 18, 1989. She gained her Angel Wings and joined Our Lord on February 6, 2024, at the age of 34.
Kiana is survived by her mother, Janice (Dan) Holbrooks Flippin Arkansas, her Father Glen (Alysia) Hays, from McKinleyville Ca, Her Children Leon, Kannon, and Savannah Wright all of Flippin Ar. She is also survived by her brothers, Lee Hays in Salem Oregon and Charles Hays in Pocatello Idaho and her sisters, Christine Loghry in McKinleyville Ca. and Shanon Watts in Gamaliel Arkansas, Her stepchildren Michael (Linda), Destiny, Zane, and Mercedes Bogard and her precious Granddaughter Rayleigh Bogard in Wideman Arkansas. Kiana is also survived by her Grandparents Charles and Diana Mattson of Mountain Home Ar. and Sharon Lunsford Cain of Eureka Ca. and several aunts, Uncles, and Cousins, Nieces, Nephews and an extended family beyond compare. Kiana also leaves behind her Fiancé Dennis Amaral. They were planning a future together, but God had other plans. Kiana is preceded in death by her Grandfather's Michael Hall, Dauwayne Hays, and her sister at heart Jennifer Cremeans
Kiana accomplished so many things in life, but she was most proud of her Children and receiving her AA in Business and being close to receiving her BA. The 4 years she was in college, she made the Dean's List. Kiana was also an avid Photographer. She enjoyed capturing the happy moments in people's lives and bringing out the beauty in women. Let's not forget her love for dogs. She would save them all if we allowed her too. She would come home and give me some cockamamie story about how she found an animal dumped somewhere. Her favorite dogs being of course Pitbull's, but she would take in a Chihuahua if it needed a home.
Kiki will be so missed by everyone who came in contact with her. She was Vibrant and her Infectious smile and bubbly personality could light the dullest room.
A Celebration of Life will be held March 2, 2024 @2pm at the Beautiful Cotter Springs, Cotter Arkansas. The Cotter Bridge will be lit that night in her honor.
Rest In Paradise Babygirl, until we see each again Sis.
