Kymani Elijah Bailey, 21, was fatally shot on July 8, 2023, in service of those he cared for.

Kymani was born at night on February 4th, 2002, to Natasha and Winston Bailey at Holy Cross Hospital, Silver Spring, MD. After graduating from College Park Academy in 2020, Kymani attended the University of the District of Columbia (UDC) to pursue his collegiate goals and played his beloved sport, soccer, with the UDC Firebirds. He later transferred to Prince George’s Community College, where he was pursuing a degree in Information Technology. Kymani was also employed at Ryder Supply Chain Solutions while attending college.

Kymani was a loving, kind, humble, and generous spirit. He was always a gentleman and consistently in service to others. Kymani’s presence will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and co-workers. We are so grateful for the time that we had with him and for being touched by his divine light. Kymani is survived by his parents, Natasha and Winston, along with his sister Kamilah. He is dearly loved by his Uncles, Aunts, Grandparents, Cousins, Friends, and extended family.
