Savannah Christine Merryman, 21, passed away December 28, 2022.
She was born February 25, 2001 to Samuel DeSean Merryman and Kristy Maricelli.
Sissy was a loving single mother to her son Boone.
She was beautiful, strong and was known for being just a little mouthy. Her nickname in softball was "mouth." She always stuck up for the underdog and wasn't scared of anything or anyone. She loved listening to hip hop and rap music and could out dance anyone! She loved hard if she cared about you at all, she loved to do hair, especially makeup, also loved to fish and hunt. She was tougher than any fella and could "out glam" any woman in the world, she was self proclaimed royalty and our little princess. I will miss holding her and running my fingers through her beautiful long blonde hair. Even though it drove me crazy I am sure going to miss her asking me "why do you look like that?" every day.
Savannah you were loved more than you know, you left a void in this world when you left us baby girl and we will never be the same. We will never let Boone forget his mother and the love you gave him every day you were here. We will see you again in paradise. You were our beautiful princess, now you are our Angel. Rest easy baby girl until we are in each other's arms again.
