Alexis Briann Buxton, age 22, kissed this world goodbye and danced into heaven on March 4th, 2023, after experiencing a perforated ulcer.
Alexis, but called Lexi by all those that loved her, was born on August 14th, 2000, in Carson City, Nevada. At just a few weeks old, she joined her parents and older sister in Scott City, Kansas, where she lived the next 22 years.
Lexi will always be remembered for her infectious smile, love of sushi, and vibrant hair.
Her boundless compassion for animals, particularly strays, kept her parents continuously surprised. The Heavenly reunion with her dog, Cannon, that recently passed was sure to be joyous.
Lexi also had a unique knack for communicating with children. Children were drawn to her, and Lexi was able to find uninhibited joy in the smallest things.
She loved drawing, music, and crafts, especially potion making at her grandma’s when she was younger.
Her family finds peace in knowing she was welcomed to heaven by her Grandpa Jack Buxton, Grandpa Eugene Eckels, and Grandma Ann Eckels.
