Amari Hadid Jennings

It is with profound sadness and immeasurable love that we announce the sudden passing of our precious Amari Hadid Jennings on May 26, 2026.

Amari was born on May 30, 2024 to Kristi Marie Hoadley and Hadid Q. Jennings. Born prematurely, he entered this world already proving he was a fighter. From his very first days, he faced challenges that would have overwhelmed most, yet he met every obstacle with a strength far beyond his years. His courage, resilience, and determination inspired everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

Though his time on earth was far too short, the impact he made on the lives of those around him will be felt forever. Despite all he endured, he remained the happiest little boy. His beautiful smile could light up an entire room, and his infectious joy had a way of instantly lifting the spirits of anyone who was feeling down. Whether through a laugh, a grin, or simply his presence, he brought comfort, happiness, and love wherever he went.

He was deeply loved by his family, friends, caregivers, and all who crossed his path. In just two short years, he touched more lives than many do in a lifetime. His gentle heart, fighting spirit, and endless happiness left an unforgettable mark on everyone fortunate enough to know him.

Amari will forever be cherished by his parents, Kristi and Hadid; his brother, Domonic; his grandparents, Rob and Kristy Hoadley, Amber Prunest, and Laquida Jennings; his aunts, Isabella Prunest and Oliviah Hoadley; and his beautiful nurses. Though he may no longer be in our arms, he will always be in our hearts and missed beyond words.
