Israel “Bubba” Clarence Christopher Riley came into this world on August 23, 2016, a healthy 7lb 6oz baby boy, born to Airia L. Riley. He was adored by his sister Shaterria and the two were inseparable from the moment he came home. Although Israel’s life was a short 122 days, the love that he felt will last forever and will never leave our hearts.

Israel enjoyed cuddling and having books read to him. But most of all he loved hanging with his doggie and watching the ceiling fan. Israel had a smile that would light up the room. Israel was an easy going baby and just enjoyed being with people.

When the Lord chose to call Israel home, He was surrounded by many loved ones and he fought hard to stay with us, but his body was weak. Israel’s tiny little feet now leave holes in our hearts that will never be fully healed. He is a Beloved Son, bother “bubba”, Grandson and Nephew. Israel is now in the arms of Jesus where he will live forever with HIM.

He leaves to cherish his precious memories, his loving mother, Airia L. Riley; siblings, Monya Hill, Donyae Hill, Lamontre Hill, Shatteria McClain; grandmother, Pamela Foggs; grandfather, Roderick Thomas; aunts, Hiawather Foggs and Africa Riley; Uncles, Earle Riley and Earl Riley as well as a host of other dear relatives and friends.  Israel or ‘Bubba” as he was affectionately called, is further survived by his “Bonus” family, Kathleen and Matthew and their entire family.  The Riley family is eternally grateful to God for all of the love and care that you have given to Israel and will continue to give to his sister Shaterria.

Israel was a blessing to all who were fortunate enough to be in his presence. A Celebration of his life will be held on Thursday, January 5, 2016, 11:00am in the chapel of the Draeger-Langendorf Funeral Home.  Visitation will be from 10:00am until the time of service. Interment will take place at Graceland Cemetery.
