Da’Riya Rose Crittendon was born on June 12, 2025, at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in Little Rock, Arkansas, to Diante Crittendon and Destiny Mosley. She was born prematurely but was always a fighter. She received her wings on March 27, 2026.
Da’Riya was the little sister of Da’Laya Crittendon. She was affectionately called “Raya Papaya,” “Riy Rose,” and “Mazzy.” She was always smiling, and your spirit was lifted whenever you were around her.
She loved attention, Mickey Mouse cartoons, Ms. Rachel, her family, and her BIG sister. She was tiny but feisty, with a contagious smile that made everyone love being around her. Her special toy was her yellow giraffe.
Her memory will be cherished by her father, Diante Crittendon, and her mother, Destiny Mosley, both of Conway, Arkansas; her sister, Da’Laya Crittendon of Conway, Arkansas; her grandmothers, Regina Edwards and Brandie Gilmore, both of Little Rock, Arkansas; her grandfathers, Cedric Gilmore and Kim Thomas of Little Rock, Arkansas; her great-grandmother, Miriam Edwards of Conway, Arkansas; and a host of aunts, uncles, other relatives, and friends.
Visitation for family and friends will be held on Friday, April 10, 2026 from 10:00am to 10:50am at Christ Temple Holiness Church, 868 Willow St, Conway, Arkansas 72032.
Celebration of life service will be held Friday, April 10, 2026 from 10:00am to 10:50am at Christ Temple Holiness Church, 868 Willow St, Conway, Arkansas 72032.
