Londyn Whited was a Beacon of Light and Joy

Londyn Rose Whited, the daughter of Brad and Lindsay Rae, was born in 2012. Her parents raised her in a close-knit family alongside two brothers.

She was a cherished daughter and sister who brought immeasurable happiness to her family from the very start.

Lindsay Rae, who works as an insurance sales agent and a marketing and sales representative, nurtured a family environment filled with warmth and affection.

Londyn was a pure joy, a child impossible to forget. She was full of an incandescent light, infectious laughter, and boundless love.

Moreover, she had a gift for making everyone around her smile, and her bright personality left a lasting impression on all who were fortunate enough to cross her path.

Her family finds solace in knowing that her light will never be extinguished and it will continue to shine in every heart she touched and in every bit of love she so freely gave.

I still remember her walking down the aisle as the flower girl in me and Brooke’s wedding, that big beautiful smile lighting up the whole damn place. It breaks my heart that she’s gone way too soon.

Londyn will always be a bright sparkle of love and will be remembered for her deeply caring heart and playful nature.

Her family treasures memories of her love for life’s simple joys, the happiness she brought, and the countless, special ways she made ordinary days feel extraordinary.

In this time of unimaginable loss, the family is deeply grateful for the outpouring of support and kindness.

A GoFundMe fundraiser and a Meal Train have been established to help support Brad, Lindsay, and their sons during this devastating time.

The Whited family will soon hold a memorial service to celebrate the life of 13-year-old Londyn. Her legacy is one of immense love, compassion, and vibrant life.

She will be held forever in our hearts.

Rest In Peace, Londyn Whited.
