Sierra McGuire
Sierra Alveretta McGuire, at the tender age of 4 years old, became an angel in Heaven on Saturday, April 10, 2021, following sudden and unexpected complications with spontaneous peritonitis. Funeral services were held at 3 p.m., on Saturday, April 17, at Community Alliance Church, Withee. Rev. Andy Davis officiated. Committal services will be held privately at a later time.
Sierra was born on May 14, 2016, in Marshfield, the daughter of Stephen and Kathryn (nee Kieffer) McGuire. She was a spirited little girl who loved to go horseback riding and riding 4-wheeler. She loved to help her dad in the shop when repairing things. It was OK if Dad didn’t have the right tool for the job, Sierra had her own set of tools to help Dad out when needed. She loved playing in her “sandbox,” which also doubled as her horse-riding arena, and playing in her swimming pool. She loved feeding calves and milking cows and going for tractor rides. She loved doing Tiny Tot classes at local horse shows and dreamed of learning to rope for the rodeo (“radio” as she said it).
Sierra’s memory will be cherished by her mom and dad, Stephen and Kathryn; her maternal grandparents, Janet and Thomas Kieffer of Loyal; her paternal grandparents, Michael and Kaia McGuire of Willard; her great-grandparents: Thomas and Deborah Genteman of Willard, Mark and Mary McGuire of Greenwood, and Peggy Helland of Argyle; her uncle, Robert (Heather) Kieffer of Edgar; her aunts: Kimberly (Ryan) Fellenz of Greenwood, Lori McGuire of Withee, Aaron McGuire of Kentucky, and Cody Genteman of Willard; and her cousins, Charleigh Kieffer, Juliet Fellenz and Sarah Lynn Fellenz. She is further survived by her cat, Mocha; her dog, Reba; her pony, Maya; and her horse, Sky.
The family is accepting memorials in Sierra’s name for assistance with medical and funeral expenses and a charity to be yet determined.
Her arrangements are under the care of Life Tributes Funeral Home-Spencer. Please visit www.lifetributesfuneralhome.com to share condolences.
