Queenlyris Lanae

Hardy

With my heart full of love, joy and happiness I was born into this world November30, 2012 as Miss QueeenLyris Lanae Hardy Markesha Jennings and Edward Hardy in Grand Rapids, MI.

My Educational journey began at East Leonard Elementary School where I completed Kindergarten through the Second Grade. I transferred to the William C. Abney Academy, completing the Third and Fourth Grades.  My Fifth through the Seventh Grades was concluded at Martin Luther King Leadership Academy. And yes, while attending MLK Leadership Academy I played volleyball and was a fantastic cheerleader.  I involved myself in the Afterschool Program name "Girl Group".  Due to my illness, I was unable to start my Online education journey this school year.

My journey at Helen DeVos Children Hospital was lengthy, but with a caring and compassionate team of doctors, nurses, and other health care providers they made my hospital stay comfortable.  Others said I was kind, Respectful, compassionate, and a joy to be in their presence.  At various times, I would give encouraging words and advice to others, and I enjoyed giving to others who were in need. would you have considered me a giver? I loved to dance, very artistic in drawing, coloring, and going to the movies.  I also enjoyed the Broadway live play, and yes I saw "Lion King" at the DeVos Performance Hall.

During my stay at Helen DeVos Children Hospital, an amazing blessing occurred on September 18, 2026, the hospital Chaplin, Rev. Kelly Stepanek baptized me.  After battling cancer for so long I am at peace.  My thirteen years journey on earth has completed September 19, 2026. My Heavenly Father welcomed me into His Heavenly Mansion.
