We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Ricteeka Appia, who departed this world on June 17, 2024, at the young age of 29. Known for her infectious laughter and love for life, Ricteeka leaves behind a legacy of joy and hilarity that will be greatly missed.

Born on December 15, 1994, in Florissant, Missouri, Ricteeka was the beloved daughter of Richard Appia and Belinda Johnson. She is survived by her daughter Sierra Appia, who undoubtedly inherited her mother's quick wit and sense of humor.

Ricteeka had a passion for swimming, often spending hours at the pool perfecting her stroke and soaking up the sun. She could always be found with a smile on her face and a twinkle in her eye, ready to take on any challenge that came her way.

Her laughter was infectious, and her spirit was indomitable. Ricteeka will be remembered for her love of life and her ability to find humor in even the darkest of situations. She brought light and laughter to all who knew her, and her memory will live on in the hearts of those she touched.

Rest in peace, dear Ricteeka. Your laughter will echo in our hearts forever.
