Baby Aiyanna Shonqusz Kizer was born into gods arms July 7, 2023, at Missouri Delta Medical in Sikeston, Missouri. She is the daughter of Martrevious Santesz Kizer and Timmia Andrene Horton of Charleston, Missouri.

In addition to her parents she is survived by five sisters, Armani, Angel, Aubrey, Amiyah, and Kashanna; one brother Knowledge; many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

She was preceded in death by her great great grandmother Mary Riggins, great grandmother Evelyn Horton, and one aunt Michelle Horton.

Aiyanna's family was ready for her but this world wasn't ready for her. She was born a sleeping angel.

Her mother wanted her to know. "God has you in his hands. I have you in my heart. I'll hold you in my heart until I hold you in heaven. I hold you every second of your life."

Visitation will be Thursday, July 13, 2023 from 12 noon until the time of the service at 2pm at Ponder Funeral Home in Sikeston.
