Below is a link to the obituary and a beautifully written excerpt about Raina.


Raina had a deep passion and profound love for music.  She excelled at both the guitar and piano.  Her true dream was to travel the world performing with music. She also enjoyed expressing herself with poetry and creating poems.  Raina enjoyed traveling and particularly loved Tennessee.  She also was an outdoor enthusiast, was thrilled by 4-wheelers and tractors, and was also fond of being in her Jeep Wrangler while watching sunsets with her canine companion, Scooby.  Raina had deep connections with her loved ones and was very family-oriented.  She loved her relationship with her brother, Andrew, spending time with her great-grandpa, Don, Sr., enjoying all the quality time with her dad and mom, and creating memories with other close friends and family.  Raina was best known for her beautiful smile that could light up the darkest of rooms, her love for everyone, and having absolutely no enemies.  Raina’s smile was like that of a sunset, beautiful from start to finish, and always appeared the next day with the same bright enthusiasm.  She will be deeply missed by all who she loved and loved her.
