Siobhan Natoya Ford – Monessen

By obits

Siobhan Natoya Ford, 36, was born on Dec. 31, 1983, and departed life on Sept. 16, 2020. She was one of the lights of our life. She was bubbly, happy and always had a smile on her face. She was the daughter of Calvin L. Ford and Gwendolyn C. Ford. Siobhan was raised in Sacramento, Calif., and attended Hiram W. Johnson High School, where she met some of her lifelong friends. She later moved to Monessen with her sister, Chezette, to be with her family. Siobhan spent most of her career in customer service and health care because she loved being around and helping people, no matter who it was. Siobhan was passionate about cooking (especially her “famous mac and cheese.”) She loved to talk, listen to R&B music, doing hair and makeup, going out with her closest girl friends, traveling, the DYI channel, “House Hunters” and comedies. Probably more than anything, she loved special time and getting all the love possible from her nieces and nephews, blood or not. She strived to be the favorite auntie, and she succeeded. She was a beautiful person inside and out and she would help anyone. Siobhan was about love, happiness, family and togetherness. Every soul she touched became family to her, and she wanted nothing more than for us to come together and stay together. Just wish it didn’t have to be this way. Siobhan leaves to cherish her memory, her parents; sisters, Chezette Ford, Sable Ford, Kimberly Ford and Robin Harris; brothers, Schuyler Ford, Calvin Ford and Cesar Ford; aunt, Lethia Morton; cousins, Jasmine Morton and Julius Coleman; nieces and nephews she loved with all her heart; and a host of friends from Sacramento to Pennsylvania. Viewing will be held from 2 to 6 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 26, 2020, at HOUSE OF JACKSON MEMORIAL CHAPEL, 546 Thompson Ave., Donora. Final celebration has been gently placed in the hands of the House of Jackson Memorial Chapel, Karl Jackson, funeral director, 724-379-5420.
