Zayah Joseph Reeves Age: 5
Of: Dickson, Tennessee Passed Away: Friday May 30, 2025, at Vanderbilt Medical Center. Zayah was born on February 12, 2020. Soon after, he entered our lives via foster care. On April 11, 2023, he officially became ours as Zayah Joseph. On May 30, 2025, he took his first steps into heaven back into the arms of his beloved Papa Joe. Zayah’s short life was riddled with many medical obstacles. He is most known for his beautiful bright smile, which is truly the first thing most people noticed about Zayah. He had to hurdle multiple obstacles and barriers that he bravely and courageously did day after day, all while smiling. Those obstacles are now cleared, and Zayah is at peace with an everlasting smile no longer in pain. Special thanks to Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital, Millar Rich and Maxim nursing, Make A Wish Foundation, and Hope Kids for providing care and advocating for Zayah’s best interests.
