Kenley Jean Wadena-Hill, precious baby girl of Shelby Wadena and Kennedy Hill Jr., was born into the arms of angels at 6:37am on Thursday, August 23, 2017 at United Hospital in St. Paul, MN.

Born much to early due to the complications of Anencephaly, Kenley weighed 1 lb 7 oz and was 9.5 inches long. The precious moments in the hospital surround by loving family will be forever treasured in their hearts. Although her time in their arms was so very brief, Kenley was loved from the moment of her creation. Kenley Jean, their perfect little angel, will never be forgotten.

Kenley is being greeted in heaven by her two siblings, lost to miscarriage; her great grandparents: Darrell "Chip" and Bonnie Wadena, Gary Buehner, Bernard Clark, and Melferd and Esther Hill; her aunt, Debra; and her cousins, Lyssa and Deon.
She is loving remembered by her parents, Shelby and Kennedy Jr. of Naytahwaush, MN; grandparents, Michelle and Darrell "Smokey" Wadena, Betty Oppegard, and Kennedy Hill Sr.; great grandmothers, Ruby Buehner and Nona Townsend; aunts and uncles: Leslie (Jr.) Wadena, Desiree (John) Wadena, Lindsey (William) Wadena, Julie Weaver, Darrell Wadena III, Darren (ReAnna) Wadena, Keith Oppegard, Scott (Chelsie) Oppegard, Heather (Larry) Oppegard, Kendra Hill, Beth (George) Hill, Amber Hill, Applonia (Anthony) Hill; and many cousins and extended family members.
