Kendra Noel Curtice, 28, the most loving devoted mother of Lily Louise, Bailee Brooke and Sadie Sue, and husband Adam Prather.
She fought so long and hard, always kept her smile and her brave heart.
She is the daughter of Tracie and John Ralph Edwards, and Paul and Jerlyn Curtice; and sister of Kelsie and Eric Dobson, Christian Ensley, Trevor and Kegan Curtice.
She so loved her in-laws, Gayla and Larry; aunties, Mattie and Kaitlyn; and uncle Mason. She’s the granddaughter of David and Jane Rowland, and great-granddaughter of Rowena Rowland and Frances Curtice.
Kendra sure loved her uncle Dave, and uncle Jenny and Cali and Riley Randall.
She was the best “Aunt Sissy” to Easton, Levi, Christoph, Paisley and Laken.
She was a member of Deep Creek Missionary Baptist Church and loved her church family. She sure enjoyed being on the mission team and traveling to West Virginia to witness to others.
Her contagious smile will never leave us, nor her love for her girls, family and friends.
