Kyra Wyn Samson

Nothing describes Kyra more than how she lit up every room she entered with her energy and smile. Drawn in by her enthusiastic persona and warm hugs, those around Kyra cherished her presence. She was the lively daughter, guiding sibling, relied upon friend, devoted partner, and dependable colleague. Kyra gathered friends together, brought warmth and honesty into every conversation, and turned ordinary evenings into memories that will last forever.

Kyra’s life was full of meaningful time with family and friends. She danced and was accepted into Company at Meg Segreto's Dance Centre, spent her summers at Camp Interlaken JCC, and was a proud alumna of Northwestern University, Class of 2020. Kyra started as a Production Assistant then worked her way up to Production Manager at Watch What Happens Live! with Andy Cohen. After moving to Los Angeles, she became the Production Coordinator, Live Events at Jeopardy!.

Kyra is survived by parents Cindi Jacobs and David Samson, siblings Hannah (Ryan) Hager and Caleb Samson, fiancé William Truesdell, and an endless amount of caring friends from all stages of her life.
