Sierra Ragsdale, lovingly known as "Big Baby," passed away on June 8, 2024, in her hometown of Jackson, MS. She was born on October 8, 1988, in Jackson, MS, and spent her entire life in the same city.

Sierra's favorite hobbies included making cherished memories with her family. She found joy in preparing and savoring soul food, which delighted her taste buds. R&B music, with Mary J. Blige being her favorite artist, always touched her heart.

Sierra was a warrior, bravely navigating through life's challenges. She had an unwavering commitment to her children's happiness, and nothing brought her more joy than seeing them content. Home with her family was Sierra's favorite place in the world, where she felt most at peace.

In her leisure time, she enjoyed watching the TV show "Girls Trip" and cheering for her beloved football team, the Saints. Sierra, also known as "Big Baby," was a proud caregiver, dedicating herself to helping others.

She found solace in the Serenity Prayer, which guided her through life's trials. Sierra's proudest accomplishment was her children, Samiya and Rondavion, who brought immense happiness and fulfillment to her life.
