Arriani Arroyo Memorial Fund

Donation protected
Arriani "Arri" Arroyo, at only 9 years old, was called home to be held in the arms of God on February 26th, 2021. Her family is coming together to request support for her parents, Eddie and Christal Arroyo, to cover the expenses of her memorial service and loss of income during this time of mourning. 

This beautiful soul was wise and intelligent beyond her years. Her future was exceptionally bright. We can't count how many hearts she filled with her joy, energy, and magnetic personality.  



Arriani was a beautiful, brave, and happy little girl. She was incredibly generous and in the days before her passing she went through her clothes and found everything that didn't fit and bagged them for donation on her own with no one asking her to. She was social, friendly, and loving. She enjoyed playing outside, spending time with friends and family, and singing Alicia Keys Girl on Fire. 

In her journal her father found that she was writing about how happy she was right now, and how excited she was about going back to Florida to go to beach and to go swimming in pools, something she learned to do very quickly when she lived there. 



A true fashionista, she loved to do nails, do her own hairstyles, and watching makeup tutorials. She liked to make and style her own clothes. 

Her talents were absolutely limitless. She was a talented artist who loved to draw and had dreams of going to Paris one day to go to art school. She would say she wanted to be a doctor who delivered babies because her heart is so kind, and she would say she wanted to be a lawyer because she believed in goodness and helping others. 

She was obsessed with her 5 year old little brother and while they had their typical sibling rivalry sometimes, she treated him like he was her own child and took care of him. He misses her with all his heart and has been guarding her Xbox controller for her. He shares it only if he knows she would want him to. 

She loved fidget toys and Roblox. She loved ALL of her siblings so much and was proud to be a little sister and a big sister. We believe that one of her last blessings was to bring her entire family and friends together to share the deep love we all have for her. 



Arri was a social butterfly with a big circle of friends. She and her closest friends would get on Zoom calls together and play games together. She loved her best cousin and everyone in her family.  She was just announced Student of the Month by her teacher and was so proud of her accomplishment. 



Arri loved worship music and even shared that she had just written a song of praise for Jesus. We pray that she is in his arms now, shining brightly down to earth from heaven. 




While her family is maintaining privacy about the details of her passing until they are ready to share her story, we would like to bring awareness to the dangers that exist on internet, which we believe is the reason Arri is no longer with us. 

PLEASE READ: Her parents are asking all parents to remain vigilant about what your children are being exposed to while using social media apps such as TikTok. There are people who use the internet to spread dangerous challenges and trends that anyone at any age can access. Children are innocent and as the world evolves, technology has become a regular part of daily life for all of us. This will not change and future generations of kids will continue to be born into newer and more advanced technology. These apps start with harmless trends but there is an undercurrent of malice being spread into these apps. As parents we do everything that we can to protect our children and shelter them from harm, but we must work together as a community and world to ensure that our future generations are safe and secure. 

Even with close monitoring, there are still ways for children to be exposed to danger. Monitor what they are viewing, ask questions, and report anything that is dangerous.

*Please note that all funds are going directly to the parents for expenses.
