Cierra Nichole Hoskins came into this world January 28, 1999 as a true fighter. She was born to Jamie Fissel and James Hoskins. She grew up with so much personality and was always wise beyond her years. She was extremely smart, loved attention and her mommy. Her heart was huge, and she was loyal and independent. She grew up fast and helped raise her sisters, and maybe that is where her love of kids came from.
She wanted to help the single mothers of Mansfield and started her own daycare over a year ago, Allforone childcare. She loved every second of it too, throwing parties for them for every holiday. She was living her dream.
She loved her family with every fiber of her being. She believed in family being close. She never judged a soul. A homeless guy that didn’t have anything was one of her best friends. That’s the kind of person she was, always giving. She liked to have fun, was always smiling, and she was obnoxiously loud sometimes but she didn’t care what anyone thought of her. She loved herself and that’s all that mattered to her. She was the best mommy ever, and her daughter was her whole world. There was nothing she would not do for her. She always wanted a baby of her own, and she lived her short life for her daughter.
Cierra Hoskins was such a beautiful person inside and out, full of life and dreams. She loved to gamble, and she always thought she would hit a million on a lottery ticket. She would drop anything for anyone she loved. She wasn’t religious but she always believed she was blessed and when something bad would happen she would say “it’s ok everything will work out, I’m blessed God’s got me.” It’s hard not to be mad at God right now because she was taken from us so unfairly. But she left a piece of her with us, her daughter. DeEriah will be raised with love and she will always know who her mommy was. Cierra was very much loved and she knew it.
