Kyra Hillard-Muma of Taylor, MI, formerly of Jackson, age 70, died Monday, Dec. 27, 2021 at Tender Care Lodge of Taylor.
She was born Aug. 23, 1951 in Orange, Virginia, the daughter of Earl Elmer and Alma Gertrude (Chewning) Watson.
Kyra was a firecracker. She was loud, fun, and feisty, and could spark conversation with a stranger, or light up a room with her laughter. She was strong and direct and a force to be reckoned with, she was also beautiful and flirty and occasionally a little over the top! (Understatement of the year.)
She was born in the South, and grew up in Detroit where she attended high school. She later earned her GED, and additional accreditation to become a realtor and broker for Century 21 Welty-Farrell Realty in Jackson, Michigan. She was a co-owner of a 7-11 on West Avenue in the 1970s, and later did some modeling.
A memorial service will be held Wednesday, Jan. 12, 3:00 pm at Cole Funeral Chapel, Chelsea.
