Life story

Blakeleigh Lorén Weems, born on March 8, 2006, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, peacefully departed on January 1, 2024. A proud native of Walker and a resident of Baton Rouge, Blakeleigh was a senior at Walker High School.

Dedicated and accomplished, Blakeleigh held a 4.2 GPA and served as a cheerleader for her entire life. She left a lasting mark on her school community by actively engaging in school committees, SGA, Digital Media and Beta club. Blakeleigh's passion for entertainment began with cheer and extended to singing, where her talent shined in various school activities.

Accepted to multiple universities, she ultimately chose LSU, where academic and residential scholarships awaited her. Blakeleigh aspired to pursue marketing and business and dreamed of interning as a Disney Princess. Her diverse interests included animals, reading, Mario and quality time with loved ones.

Blakeleigh's infectious smile and laughter illuminated the lives of those around her. She showed us, like her favorite Disney princess Ariel, that just as there were wonderful things about life under the sea, there are also wonderful things about the world above. She will be remembered as a funny, beautiful, and talented soul who embraced life & Christ to the fullest.

Sweet Blake 🤍

I loved riding together to tumbling practices on Mondays. Calling in our loaded tea orders and picking up candy from the gas station all while having to rush to the gym. Can still hear your laughs from those trips. Miss you 🤍
