What Kayla was most proud of was her sobriety, she had been sober over 3 years and always said that she had to stay sober in order to stay in her daughter’s life. There is nothing that Kayla loved more than her child, while due to her mental illness, she was unable to parent her, she still loved her to pieces. You will be forever missed, Kayla Ann forever 28.
