Celebrate the Life of Maya…June 3, 1999 ~ November 19, 2003... We share with you and celebrate the beautiful life of Maya Marie Pettit, a young girl who bravely battled cancer at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Sadly Maya is no longer on this earth, but continues to live on through the lives she touched during her time with us. This is a special tribute to celebrate her life and the many she befriended with her warm, touching smile and bright eyes along the way.

This page has been done with such love that words can not express how my heart feels. It is just a glimpse into who Maya was but oh what a glimpse. We're better off for having known her and her family and I know that others will still be transformed into more loving and understanding parents when they invest their time reading her story and sharing her wonderful glow. May God bless your family and may you always feel her presence. We love you guys and thank you so much for continuing to share your hearts with us.
