Yash-Reanna Bell-Young

Live, Love, Laugh was a motif very fitting of Yash-Reanna A Bell-Young (Yashi- New New). She lived her life to the fullest, loved her family and friends dearly and kept us all laughing with her witty humor.

Her life, while short, left us all with fond memories of how generous and warm of a person she was. She was a protector, very outspoken, encouraging motivator, caring and intelligent, diligent worker with a persuasive mind-set and was successful as an entrepreneur and writer.

Yash-Reanna A Bell-Young born on April 9, 1997 to Shatonna Johnson (Young) and Earl Clifton Bell III in Rockford, Illinois. Yashi attended Auburn High School to later receive her G.E.D. She was known for her outstanding creativity and amazing personality. Yashi had the most beautiful smile that could light up the biggest room. Yashi instinctively was an entrepreneur from the beginning and was the founder and creator of Kustom Kreations. Yashi was kind-hearted and loved helping people anywhere and in any way she could that crossed her path. Yashi loved her mother and siblings dearly and would protect them to the ends of the earth.
