Nystajah Stazjai Bell

Nystajah Stazjai Bell blessed the world with her presence on March 19, 2005, in Baltimore, Maryland. God called this “Little Angel” home on November 13, 2008 when he realized that Heaven was not the same without her. Affectionately known as “Ny-Ny”, Nystajah was the first child born to Raymond Bell and Stacy Jones. Although Ny-Ny’s time on earth was brief, her life was filled with an abundance of love and happiness.Ny-Ny loved to dance, sing and model. She was truly a “girly girl” always prancing around with her purse, boots and baby doll. A true Diva, Nystajah was very photogenic and would strike a pose at the drop of a dime being sure to fix her fingers in the peace sign. If she wasn’t asking to go clothes shopping, she was asking to do your hair. She also loved to be the center of attention and make everyone laugh by just being goofy or saying her favorite phrases, “Oww Oww” or “BIG UPS! To all my haters”. Ny-Ny is probably putting on a fashion show right now in Heaven showing off her brand new wings and halo.Ny-Ny found her greatest joy in nurturing and protecting her little sister M’layah, who she treated as if she were her very own little baby. Ny-Ny also adored and wanted to be like her Aunt Casey, who she called my K-K. To relax from a hard day of being fabulous, NyNy would also lay back and suck her thumb just like Granny Patsy. She was very smart for her age and excelled at the Pleasant View Gardens Head Start Program. Ny-Ny also liked to write and was eagerly learning to read. Nystajah was a loving child who had a special bond with each of her family members. Most importantly though, as all angels do, NyNy was sure to say her prayers before eating and going to bed.Nystajah leaves to treasure her memory her beloved parents Stacy Jones and Raymond Joseph Bell Jr. as well as her precious little sister M’layah Bell.
