Obituary For Shylo Kristeen Buathier

Shylo was truly one of a kind. She was the life of the party, and her loud, obnoxious laugh could lift anyone out of a bad mood. Her beautiful smile could brighten anyone’s day, and she always seemed to have a “Shylo joke” ready – whether it made you laugh until you cried or simply roll your eyes and shake your head.

Shylo loved deeply. She loved with her whole heart and believed in giving people chances – second, third, and even fourth chances. She had a heart that saw the good in others, and she loved her family and friends fiercely.

Above all else, Shylo was a loving mother. Her one true love was her son, Ryker Minton, who was the center of her world and held the biggest piece of her heart.

Shylo leaves behind her loving mother, Michelle Buathier, and stepfather, Eric Just; her father, Chris Buathier; her son, Ryker Minton; her brothers, Justin Minton, Dakota Just, and Corbin Just; her sisters, Rachael Collins, Riley Roberts, and Alexis Just; her brother-in-law, CJ Collins; her great-grandmother, Ruby Rowland; her grandmother Debbie Sander; her uncle, Troy Sander; her aunt, Kourtney Howe-Mower; her nieces, Maryah and Kelcie Collins; her nephews, Christopher and Koda Collins; and all of her beloved cousins.

She also leaves behind many friends who were much more than friends – they were her extended family. Shylo had a way of creating lasting connections, and the people she loved became part of her family.

There are no words big enough to describe the hole Shylo has left behind. Her laughter, her smile, her jokes, her stubbornness, her huge heart, and all those unforgettable “Shylo Moments” will forever live on in the hearts of everyone who knew and loved her.

Shylo may no longer be here with us, but the love she gave, the memories she created, and the lives she touched will never fade.

Until we meet again, Shylo. We love you more than words could ever say.

    It's not the same without you here Shylo, but I know you are watching all of us. Shylo has always been such a beautiful person inside and out. Always had a huge heart and really loved the people she loved. She wanted to help others so much and I look up to her for that. I miss her so much. I will never forget our laughs, our cries, our accomplishments. Love you Shylo

    My girl.. accepting the fact that you're not here with us anymore has been one of the hardest realities of my life. I would give anything to hear your voice or your laugh again, to talk to you & to tell you how incredibly proud I am of you. We were just girls together.. you were one of the best friends and people I've ever encountered in my life and I fear I will never meet another quite like you. Except for maybe Ryker.. he is a spitting image of you - his smile brightens the darkest of rooms and his beaming personality allows no room for sadness- just like yours. You always knew exactly how to make someone smile or laugh. You were always there, even in your mess- you always showed up for everyone you loved. You never forgot to remind me how much you loved me & my babies - and always showed up for me on days I couldn't even show up for myself. Being pregnant now with your nephew is only a reminder of how you never let me do it alone with your nieces, you were there every step with the girls and I'm so sad my son won't experience a life with you around. It's crazy to think over a decade ago we met on a random Sunday and then suddenly your family was my family and mine was yours. We we're inseparable, attached at the hip. I would spend days and weeks at your house, even while you were still in school before graduating , I would just sit at your house with Rara waiting for you to get home. Then we would all sit and wait for mom to bring us food or make us food- either way , we were happy. We worshipped Jesus together, for hours on end.. just babies loving a God who knew our souls belonged together. My heart breaks knowing I won't ever get to hug you or hear your dumb Shylo jokes, or your obnoxious laugh again.. but truth is I'll never forget the sounds & now somehow every joke you ever told is the funniest I've ever heard. I will never forget you & our memories- I could go on and on about- and I will never stop missing you. Watch over us sister, until we meet again. - "brebanga" I love you so much 💙😔

    A shining star is how I see Shylo, she appeared out of no where to me and was a blessing when I needed one. She led me a a beautiful church and shared her love for her family and friends with me. May god keep you shining bright Shylo!

    I only knew Shylo for a short time. But man was I blessed to know her at all! She came into my life as I was planning my wedding and my reception! One day, when she walked into work, she saw me and automatically knew something was wrong. She, in Shylo fashion, walked over to me all goofy like, and said "So tell me what's wrong..." I had explained to her that the person who was supposed to be handling my dessert table had backed out completely. And I had no idea how I was going to make it happen. She had her luck the night before at the casino, and the next thing I know she is sending me money, not as a loan but as a wedding gift, to complete my dessert table the way I so desperately wanted. You see Shylo knew how important that day was for me. And she just wanted to make me feel special. I thanked her so many times and tried to pay her back. But she always insisted that I not do that. Shylo was the kind of friend to give you the shirt off her back, even only knowing you for a short time. We shared many laughs. A few cries. And even more hugs! I will forever miss you my "work wife" I love you Shylizzle!!!! Love, Sammi
