A destiny and a girl, interrupted
Even at a young age, there were signs that one day her destiny would be caring for people: She loved babysitting her nieces and nephews. The youngest of seven, she had recently graduated from Job Corps, receiving her certification as a medical assistant.
She was the “sweetest person, lovable, real goofy, she loved to laugh, she always had a big smile on her face," said her sister, Alexis Meyers.
Destiny T. Brown, 17, was shot while sitting in the passenger seat of a car. She died three days later on March 4, 2018, at University Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio.
