We Remember
TRUITT, Alexandra “Lexy” Tempest
—
Passed away on Sunday, April 17, 2016 at the age of 22. She is survived by her loving parents, Sean and Simone Truitt; brother Jaxon Truitt; and paternal grandparents Shirley and Dale Truitt. It is with immense sadness, we announce the passing of our beautiful, bright and loving daughter, sister and granddaughter, Alexandra (Lexy) Tempest Truitt. She will always be remembered for her zest for life, infectious smile, radiant aura and the positive effect she had on people’s hearts. Lexy helped her brother in subtle ways, without him knowing, while supporting his independence and she will continue to do that for him and everyone she touched. She had an amazing ability to connect with people and bring them all together through love and acceptance. We wish Lexy’s legacy to be that her love of others will continue on through the vast and diverse group of friends that she has brought together. Lexy’s free-spirited mind always brought out the best in herself and others. Lexy’s sparkle will continue in the way that we will carry her in our hearts forever and ever.
