She also attended University of Pittsburgh Johnstown, Penn Highlands and was a 2016 graduate of the Conemaugh School of Nursing. She was employed at Allegheny General Hospital in the Surgical Intensive Care Unit. She was a dedicated registered nurse who truly loved her job, coworkers, and patients. Reyanah’s favorite pastime was to travel, which through love and friendship, she got to do a lot. Throughout her lifetime, Re had the blessings of many great friends, many of those lasted from childhood to the very end. So to the old and new, just know you were deeply loved and appreciated. Remember Re with a laugh and a fun memory.

Her song,

“Reyanah rings like a bell through the night and wouldn’t you love to love her? Dreams unwind loves a state of mind.” Take to the sky like a bird in flight my baby.
