Arika Kelly Westgate, Hendersonville, TN— Arika Kelly Westgate passed away on Saturday, November 2nd, 2024, at the age of 49, after complications during an open-heart surgery at Vanderbilt University Medical Hospital in Nashville, Tennessee. Her unexpected passing has deeply saddened her family, friends, and the community she was a cherished part of.
Arika was known for her kind spirit, unwavering faith, and love for others. She is survived by her husband, Brian Edens, and her three children—Nickolas Joseph Westgate, Luke Anthony Westgate, and Ava Rose Westgate. She also leaves behind her stepson, Chase Edens, and her parents, Eugene Cook and Mary Pat Kelly Upright, along with her siblings and many extended family members.
Her life was a testament to strength and resilience, having overcome malignant cancer of the spine as a child when she was given only six weeks to live. Arika’s love for nature, her deep connection with her faith, and her joy in spending time with her family were central to who she was. She had a successful career in real estate, most recently serving as Leasing Manager with Mission Rock Multi-Family Residential Management Company in Hendersonville, TN.
In her honor, a fundraiser has been established by her loved ones to help cover funeral and final expenses. The goal is to ensure Arika’s passing is honored with the dignified service she deserves. Supporters are encouraged to contribute to the fundraiser and keep the family in their prayers during this challenging time.
We extend our deepest condolences to Arika’s family and friends. May her memory live on, and may they find comfort and strength in the love she shared with them.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Westgate and Edens families during this difficult time.
