Alyssa Nicole Raley

Alyssa Nicole Raley, a beacon of joy and love, passed away peacefully on May 9, 2024, in Tulsa. Born on February 22, 1993, in Pawnee, Alyssa was the cherished daughter of Darryl and Anita (Hubbs) Raley of Okmulgee, and was a source of constant pride and happiness for her entire family.

Alyssa’s life was a testament to her nurturing spirit and her passion for bringing people together through her culinary talents. After graduating from Morris High School in 2011, she pursued her dreams at Oklahoma State University Institute of Technology, where she earned a degree in Culinary Arts. Her dedication to her craft was recognized when she was honored with the People to People award from the Ambassador Program. Her love for culinary arts also took her abroad to Great Britain and Ireland, where she immersed herself in the culture and cuisine, further enriching her expertise and perspective.

Professionally, Alyssa currently worked in child care, where she touched the lives of numerous families in Okmulgee with her kindness and care. Her love extended beyond her work as she was an active member of Life Church in Tulsa Hills, where she found great joy and fulfillment.

Alyssa’s love and February 22, 1993 – May 9, 2024

warmth were her greatest gifts, and she is survived by a family who adored her: her parents, Darryl and Anita Raley of Okmulgee; her fiancé, Aaron Carson; her beloved children, Kayden Raley and Ariana Carson, all of Okmulgee; as well as her cousins, aunts, uncles, and a multitude of friends and relatives who were blessed to know her.

Loving is the word that encapsulates Alyssa Nicole Raley’s essence. She will be profoundly missed, yet her legacy of kindness and compassion will continue to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing her. Viewing times for Alyssa are currently pending. Funeral services are scheduled for 2 p.m. Wednesday, May 15, 2024, at Integrity Chapel with Pastor Lauren of Life Church, Tulsa officiating. Interment will follow at Okmulgee Cemetery under direction of Integrity Funeral Service.
