    Chasidy was a woman of many facets; those who knew her would agree that she embodied both sweetness and kindness while occasionally displaying a fiery spirit that left a lasting impression. Her unique personality was a highlight in the lives of her family and friends, making moments spent with her unforgettable.

    Tragically, Chasidy’s life was cut short due to complications of pregnancy, in which she and her son River Nakane passed unexpectedly. The loss of both has created a profound void in the hearts of those who loved them.

    Chasidy is survived by her mother, Stacy Lyle; her sister Ashley Lyle; her brothers George Nakane and Taylor Nakane; and her three precious children: Natalie Lawson, Jayden Lawson, and Zaaron Moody. She is also mourned by her uncles and aunts, including David Lyle, Mark Lyle and Cherie Lawson, alongside her ride-or-die cousin, who held a special place in her heart, Becky Lyle. Additionally, she leaves behind cousins Misty Baker, Windy Baker, and Stormy Hall, all of whom will remember her fondly.

    Chasidy was preceded in death by her grandfather Harold Lyle, grandmother Hazel Lyle, and aunt Vickey Lyle. She is also reunited with her dear son River, who now rests peacefully alongside her.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”profile-links-header”]
