Rhyanna Elizabeth Flynn's Obituary
Rhyanna Elizabeth Flynn left her earthly body to be wrapped in the arms of our Lord on January 27, 2026 at the age of 28 peacefully in her sleep at home in Debary, FL.
Rhyanna was a beautiful bright light that radiated life and happiness. From the moment she was born she knew her purpose on earth was to show you love so pure like no other you would be prepared to understand. To see the world beyond face value and she accomplished that for 28 wonderful years. Rhyanna's struggles in life were obvious, abundant, and unique, but so was her joy. Her limited abilities did not stop her from showing love or doing what she loved. Often laughing in inopportune
moments or at the rebuking of others and sometimes, for what seemed like, no reason at all. She appeared to know something others did not; that life, no matter the trials, was a gift and was meant to be enjoyed and cherished always.
As a tiny one she loved interacting with people, being outside, listening and dancing to music, and eating everything she could. There were no foods that were off limits. This continued throughout her entire life. She loved school starting her first days at Starke Elementary, Spirit Elementary, Manatee Cove Elementary, River Springs Middle School, and graduating from University High School. Her eyes would light up
when the school bus would approach, and she loved every part of those rides to school whether it was 30 minutes or 5 minutes. She loved her friends, laughing when schoolmates or her siblings were reprimanded or did inappropriate things. She loved thrilling adventures. This includes riding rollercoasters and water rides at Disney, sled riding and playing in the snow in West Virgina, the county fair rides and shows, the Octoberfest rides, train rides, the Sunrail, the side by side, 4-wheelers, and flying in an ultralight plane. She loved activities like swimming, riding on boats, bounce houses, and blow-up slides. If we could get her in it or on it, she was doing it and loving it because her family saw no limits. She loved petting animals of all kinds and loved when animals loved her back.
Rhyanna’s biggest passion besides having fun, loving animals, being around friends, and enjoying her time with family was food. She had quite the palette. Sweets were her favorite. She never found a cake she did not like. Rhyanna could bring joy to the saddest moment and understanding in the most confusing times. You could walk in a room and she would either give you a look that questioned what you just were doing
or a belly laugh that made you feel like you must look like a clown. You will be forever missed and always loved.
