Funeral service for Skye Lacey Hiser, 17, was held at 4 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 13, 2009 at the Douglas High School Gymnasium in Douglas, Wyo. with Pastor Tom Strock of the First Baptist Church of Lusk, Wyo. officiating. Skye Hiser, a resident of Douglas, died due to injuries she received in an automobile accident.
Skye was welcomed into this world on Feb. 4, 1992 two days late, but well worth the wait. Skye was the light of the world from the moment she was born. Skye was called home to be with the angels on Oct. 8, 2009.
We only had her for 17 short years, but she filled every single day with joy that was contagious. Wherever Skye went, light followed her and lit up the room. Skye never met a stranger, and she never left anyone behind. She made sure that everyone knew how important they were, always helping people in whatever she did. Skye loved watching movies, being with friends, and taking care of any wayward animals that came her way. She will always be remembered for her smile and her love of family and friends.
Skye truly loved her brothers and wanted to be a good example to them. Skye had a personal relationship with Christ knowing Him as Lord and Savior. Skye gave her soul to the Lord on Aug. 19, 2002 at the NSPRA church service.
Skye loved helping on the family ranch and working with her horses, and for Skye ranching was an amazing joy in her life. She was active in FFA for many years and this last year as President, 4-H, High School Rodeo, and the high school paper, "Cat Tracks". Skye was part of the Work Based Education Program at school, working at the Converse County Bank. She found that she enjoyed working there so much that she continued thru the summer and on into this school year. Skye was passionate about helping others and did an internship with the ambulance of Memorial Hospital of Converse County.
