Monica was born on August 22, 1995, in Hinesville, GA.
During her 12 years of childhood cancer, there were a number of organizations and events that were dear to her. For many years she was a participant in the 46 faces of Rally and a Rally on the Runway Model. She was the Leukemia & Lymphoma Georgia hero, Miss Southeast Relay for Life Georgia, Miss Relay for Life Hall County, CURE supporter, Beads of Courage collector, Camp Sunshine camper, Humerology Atlanta’s biggest fan, and a Songs for Kids friend just to name a few. A special group, Blue Skies Ministry allowed the family to attend beach retreats for many years at Port St. Joe, Florida, and these trips were a slice of Heaven to her each time she attended.
She loved hard and big. Monica was a member of Bethlehem Church where she has served in the children’s program for over ten years. She loved watching over all the little ones. Monica was a talented makeup artist, an incredible artist that loved to draw and paint, as well as a talented seamstress that created from scratch many outfits for herself to wear at COSplay conventions and hospital princess events over the years.
Monica has always loved being a big sister to her brothers Bubba and Cody. They shared a lot of laughs together and created many memories that will never be forgotten. Monica was loved so, so much by Jeannie and Victor and the family will never forget how I love you more than me.
Monica was a member of the class of 2013 at West Hall High School.
