Kayla Michelle McNamara, 20, of Paragould, rested in the arms of Jesus on Tuesday. She was a very loving and caring person who had a passion for animals.

Kayla graduated from Johnson and Wales University in Providence, Rhode Island with an associate's degree in Culinary Arts. While currently working towards her bachelor's degree, Kayla was employed as a nanny. Kayla was the daughter of Joan and Jeff Logsdon and Todd and Marjorie McNamara.
