Justice Lianna Purnell was born on June 20, 1998. She sadly passed away on September 9th, 2019 at the age of 21 years young. She resided in Merced, CA, but originally was from Sunnyvale, CA. She is survived by her father, Mark Purnell (Stacy Sojka), her mother Margarita Purnell (Carlos Soto Sr.), her brother Carlos Andres Soto, and her Aunt Julie Purnell. She is preceded in death by her Nan, Sonia, and her grandfather, Frank Purnell. Lianna graduated from Beyer High School in 2016, worked as a server for Five.Ten.Bistro, and recently had enrolled in Milan Institute, to follow her passion for hair, nails, and make up. Lianna loved everyone whom she crossed paths with, but most of all, her family and friends. She enjoyed playing soccer, riding dirt bikes, listening and dancing to music (especially Mac Dre), wearing tie-dye, reading books, driving mustang's, snuggling with her three dogs, embracing the magic of Disneyland, and overall, was a fun-loving, outgoing young lady, who would do anything to put a smile on your face. She wasn't afraid to Express her feelings and would often times, randomly text close family and friends to say, "I love you." Lianna's smile, laugh, good sense of humor, love, and positive vibe, will be greatly missed by all who knew her. Lianna, we love you to the moon (and heaven) and back.
