Life story

Siena was born in Maryland to Jared and Alin Schoenrock. Siena's older sisters, Mica and Jaden, were so excited to meet the newest bundle of joy! Little did her sisters know, Siena would blow them out of the water when it came to academics and athleticism. Somehow Siena could function off of 6 hours of Dora, and 3 hours of sleep, then wake up the next day and show those other Kindergarteners what 2 + 2 equaled!

Eventually, Siena became the older sister to two kids at once, and didn't even have a chance to see what it was like to have one little sibling, but she handled it with poise, joy and so much patience. The twins, Ella and Liam, were so lucky to have a sister as patient as Siena.

Siena could only be truly described as "The most popular introvert". She had the most incredible friends and teammates that anyone could ask for, but how could people not be attracted to the warm, kind, loving personality of Siena. At the end of the day, she did so well knowing that she needed her own space and time to decompress from the stressors of life. Siena was a book fanatic, not only did she read religiously, but the books she chose helped her feel like she was not alone in her own life situations. She was mature beyond her years.

Aside from being incredibly intelligent, she was such an athlete. Her sports of choice included soccer, basketball, and most recently, running. Playing multiple sports at a time can be difficult to master, but she was good! And when she was on the bench to take that much needed break, she cheered louder for her teammates than the crowd in the stands behind her. She was the ultimate team player, and those who played alongside her were so lucky to do so. Siena recently fell in love with running, and boy, did she run. The soles of her shoes would be worn so quickly, so she'd get a new pair and never look back. Siena enjoyed running organized races with her little sister, Ella, and her mom, Alin (the only other two that liked to run in the family!)

Being able to do something so special to her with people so close to her heart had to be so liberating and it was always attainable to sweet Siena. Siena passed while she was out training for a half marathon, although it is nothing we ever could imagine, how incredible it is that she left this earth doing the exact thing that made her feel alive.
