Ariel Lee Minuck (Sierer)

Ariel Lee, Port Orange, Florida 17, passed on to start her new journey in heaven on Monday, October 5, 2020. She was born in Columbus, Ohio on July 23, 2003 to parents Heather Short- Adkins and the late Clifford Joseph Sierer, Jr.

Ariel was a daughter, sister, granddaughter and student. She was raised in Ohio and attended Newark City schools. She relocated to Florida a few years ago and was a current student of Spruce Creek High School in Port Orange, Florida, Senior class 2020-20201.

She was also a dedicated crew member and employee of Port Orange McDonalds store #7222, employee #2238.

Ariel was a creative writer, an avid Ohio State game fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes. She loved science fiction and fantasy stories. Ariel dreamed of becoming an FBI Forensic Investigator.

Ariel was intelligent, leaving many puzzles in Russian writings.

She was a unique individual with a soft outside and a tougher inner shell. Her personality was beautiful and she lit up the room with her presence.

Ariel was an old soul, referred to as our "Old Lady Hubbard".

She dressed as if it were always winter outside…..and had an older beyond her year's kind of way about her. She was vibrant and smart. Ariel would put you in your place in a heartbeat if you were wrong, but was sweet outside of her scoldings.

Ariel Lee will always be part of our original 6-pack family.

We will do many things to allow her legacy to carry on throughout the days and years to come.

She was loved and treasured by many and we will always be driven by her uniqueness.

She is survived by her mother Heather Short-Adkins (Joseph Romine, Sr.; step-father), her brother Joseph Romine, Jr. (Amie), her sister Autumn Lee (Jay Bihorel) and perfect nephew Baby Jay, Jr., her brother Jordan Adkins, Maternal grandparents George and Cathy Higgins, her Aunt Stephanie Higgins, Uncle Vincent Higgins (Samantha), cousins; Vincent M., Alexis D., Emily D., Leland M. and Annabelle. And special friends, Mila Gordan and family, Jasmine Spray, Kyra, Angelica and Spencer as well as special friend Michael Minuck and best friend Autumn Lee.
