She was a precious baby girl, born to Jessica Orman Lavender, and Michael Dale Pannell, with striking red hair and beautiful, curious eyes that seemed to take in the world around her. Harley Jayne’s vibrant personality was as bright as her spirit. She was especially cherished by her mother, whose presence always brought comfort and joy to her days. Harley Jayne found happiness in being held close, gently swaying in her momaroo swing, and listening to music that soothed her. Though her time on earth was far too short, the love Harley Jayne brought to her family will forever remain in their hearts.
