A memorial service for Alexis Washington, 20, of Wylie, was held June 11, at New Hope Church, 1100 W. Brown St. in Wylie.

Ms. Washington was born Feb. 29, 1992. She was the daughter of Susan DeFace Washington and Warner B.

She had a brother and sister, Sammy and Hailey, and a 3-year-old daughter, Riley.

Ms. Washington graduated from Wylie High School in 2010 and was employed at First Baptist Church in Allen. She had taken some classes at Collin College.

Her mother said Ms. Washington was a devoted mother to Riley, that she was very wise and had a passion for people. “She never judged anybody,” she said.
