Raven Seymone Hogan was born September 23, 2005. She departed this life on November 6, 2024. She was 19 years old. She lived a happy life. She never met a stranger. She leaves to cherish her memories her parents, who love her dearly, Felicia Carruthers of Tupelo, MS, and Clifton Hogan of Wren, MS.
Raven was known as “Sweet Baby” to her family because she was as sweet as pie.
She also leaves two sisters, La’Niya Carruthers and Jakiya Metcalf of Tupelo, MS, two brothers, Monterious Carruthers and Amari Hogan of Verona, MS; her grandparents Cassie (Charles) Turner, Janice Hogan, Danny (Lawanda) Pinson; great-grandparents Lucille (Earnest) Ivy, Ethel (James) Jones; godparents Johnny and Patricia Edwards; and hosts of aunts and uncles. She also leaves a host of other relatives and friends.
She was preceded in death by one special cousin, Santonio Carruthers; granddad Charlie Hogan Jr; and an uncle, Donny Pinson.
To know Raven was to love her. She always had a smile on her face. If she was having a bad day, she wouldn’t tell you because she would make sure your day was good. Raven’s biggest dream was to graduate and go to college, which she would have because this was her senior year.
She was one that never gave up on her dream no matter what. Raven, you made it baby, now you can rest. You are greatly missed here but you are at peace. Take your rest, baby Girl, and smile on.
