Akaysha Lynn Berensen, age 26, passed away unexpectedly on November 17, 2024 in Salt Lake City, Utah.  She was born June 15, 1998 to Alicia and Casey Berensen in Grants Pass, Oregon.

Akaysha’s loud crazy laughter was contagious, and her smile lit up the room.  She was driven, unconditionally loving, and loyal.  A one-of-a-kind mom to RoseAlee and Luka, whom she loved passionately and put before anything. Her strength and independence was unrivaled.  When Akaysha showed up, she brought the fire that brought us to life.  Her love, joy, goofy dancing, and singing will forever be missed.

“It’s fine, we’re fine, everything is fine.”

Akaysha is survived by her children, RoseAlee Aspenlynn Miller and Luka Gray Prochaska; brother, Duskin Berensen, and her mother, Alicia Callor.

She was preceded in death by her father, Casey Berensen; grandmother, Lori Falsone Laws; and great-grandparents, Sam & Lorraine Falsone.
