Raziah Barnes Obituary

Raziah was in 8th grade at Banning Lewis Ranch Academy and was looking forward to attending Pine Creek High School.

Raziah dreamed of being a star actress and singer. She would often dress up to make music videos and loved to sing praise and worship with her grandmother. In addition to her love for singing and dancing, she was a selfie queen, constantly taking selfie photos.

She also enjoyed cooking, reading and hanging out with her friends as well as helping take care of her brothers and sisters.
