Adelynn Mae Harrison (July 16, 2023–December 15, 2025)
/Born July 16, 2023, our sweet Adelynn (Addy) Mae Harrison entered a world filled with joy, love, and the energy of her three older, protective brothers. Though she was the youngest and only girl, she quickly grew into her baby sister role. She loved all things girly but knew how to keep up with her big brothers even if it meant playing in the dirt. She could fend for herself and knew what she wanted.
Her beautiful, innocent spirit brought immeasurable joy and love to our family. Her parents, Derrick and Krysti, delighted in every moment with their precious daughter, cherishing her sweet personality and the joy she brought to their lives. Everywhere she went, she bounced or ran with her little blond tuft of hair blowing in the wind, dragging her blanket behind—her spunky personality and smiling eyes charming everyone around her.
On December 15, 2025, Addy, only two and a half years old, was called home to be with the Lord. Though her time on earth was brief, Adelynn’s life was a precious gift from God to us. As Psalm 127:3 reminds us, “Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him,” and she certainly was. Addy was that gift—formed by the Lord and artfully “knit . . . together in [her] mother’s womb.” God tells us that “every day of [her] life was recorded in [His] book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed” (Psalm 139:13, 16). We know that she was and is precious to God. He loves her even more than we do.
Though we are crushed in our spirit that she is absent from us, we know that she is alive in the presence of God, safely in His keeping. We know this because God’s own precious Son was born and died to pay the payment for our sins. But Jesus rose from the grave and defeated death forever.
She leaves behind her devoted parents, Derrick and Krysti, and her three loving older brothers, Ryland (8), Beckhym (6), and Cayman (4), who cherished her deeply. She was also well loved by her grandparents, Karyn St. Amand, Keith St. Amand, Sr., Christine and Rick Harrison, many doting aunts, uncles, and cousins. Her church family and youth group will feel her absence as well and miss her laughter and little voice in our halls. We all look forward to the day very soon when we will hug her once again.
