In Loving Memory of Symini Rai Moore

If you ever met Symini Rai Moore, you remember her smile. It was the kind that lit up a room instantly—the kind that made people feel seen, welcomed, and cared for without her ever having to say a word. At just 15 years old, Symini carried a kindness and compassion far beyond her years.

Symini passed away tragically on January 23, 2026, leaving her family and community shattered by a loss that feels impossible to understand. She was a student at Woodmore High School, an honor roll student, and someone who poured her heart into everything she did—cheerleading, basketball, track, volleyball, wrestling, FFA, and choir. She showed up fully, supported others fiercely, and lifted people up simply by being herself.

At Granny’s Kitchen, the family-owned business where Symini worked, customers didn’t just come for the food—they came for her. She greeted everyone with warmth, treated people with genuine care, and left lasting impressions on those who walked through the door. Symini also loved babysitting her siblings and family members, protecting and nurturing younger children with patience, tenderness, and a huge heart.

She dreamed of becoming an OB nurse, wanting one day to care for mothers and babies, and she was counting down the days to getting her driver’s permit—excited for the independence and future she had so carefully imagined. That future was full of promise, love, and purpose.

Symini leaves behind her mother, Brittany Taylor; her sisters, Red “Lorealee” and Charlotte; her brothers, Vincent and Emmanuel; and many other close family members who love and adored her; countless friends, classmates, teammates, teachers, and community members whose lives are forever changed. She was preceded in death by her father, Jay Moore.

This GoFundMe was created to help Symini’s family through this unimaginable time—assisting with funeral and memorial expenses and easing the sudden financial burdens that accompany such a devastating loss. Every donation, share, and prayer helps lift a family who is grieving the unthinkable.

Symini’s life was far too short, but her impact was immense. Her kindness, compassion, and light will never be forgotten. She lives on in every heart she touched, every smile she inspired, and every life she made better just by being in it.

Thank you for honoring Symini, for supporting her family, and for helping keep her beautiful light alive.
