With profound sorrow, we remember and honor the life of Carlissa, a vibrant 29-year-old woman whose life was tragically taken on March 31, 2026. Her passing has left an unfillable void in the hearts of her family, friends, and the wider community, as they struggle to come to terms with a loss so sudden and devastating.
That evening in Tulsa, what should have been an ordinary moment turned into a scene of unimaginable violence. Responding to a 911 call near the Apache Manor area, close to 3600 E Young Street, officers discovered a heartbreaking reality. A rideshare driver had been fatally shot behind the wheel, and Carlissa, seated in the back, had also suffered fatal injuries. Despite the immediate and determined efforts of first responders to save her, she could not be revived. In an instant, a life filled with promise, dreams, and love was taken far too soon.
Carlissa was more than a victim of a tragic event—she was a daughter, a friend, and a bright soul whose presence brought warmth and joy to those around her. Those who knew her speak of her kindness, her energy, and the light she carried into every room. Her life mattered deeply, and her memory will forever live on in the hearts of those she touched.
The violence of that night extended beyond this heartbreaking loss, as additional incidents unfolded nearby, leaving others injured and a community shaken. Authorities later identified Marsean Jacue Taylor as a suspect connected to the घटनाएँ, culminating in a confrontation with law enforcement. While investigations continue, the focus remains on seeking clarity and ensuring justice.
In the midst of such tragedy, we are reminded of the fragility of life and the importance of compassion, vigilance, and community. The courage shown by first responders and the strength of those affected stand as a testament to resilience in the face of darkness.
To Carlissa’s loved ones, no words can ease the pain of this loss. May you find comfort in the memories you shared and in the love that continues to surround you. As a community, we stand with you in grief and remembrance.
Carlissa’s life, though tragically short, will never be forgotten. Her light endures in every life she touched.
Rest peacefully, Carlissa. You are deeply loved and forever missed. 🕊️💔
