Nisah worked for Dell Computer Company for over ten years as Sales Account Executive. Nisah was also a health and wellness enthusiast. Prior to her passing, she was in school earning her certification as a health coach, so that she could educate others on wholesome living and nutrition. Nisah was a very kind and gentle soul. She had a loving, generous heart and she always went out of her way for others. Nisah truly lived life to the fullest through simple pleasures; primarily through being a supportive and devoted mom to her daughter Yanni and a very loyal, protective, and caring daughter to her mother, June. Nisah was preceded in death by her beloved older sister, Keneshia Carey, grandmother Rahimmah Abdullah, grandfather John Moore, uncle Kevin Ware, aunt Rikki Carey, and her cousins Craig Carey and Kirk Carey.Her doting and only child, Yasmeen "Yanni" Nance, will forever cherish her mom's beautiful life. Yanni was the center and driving force of Nisah's life. Nisah's hard work, determination, and every fiber in her body was fueled by the love she had for her daughter, Yanni. Yanni was the most important part of Nisah's life.
