Katalayah Isabel Ninham of Oneida, WI passed away on the 7th of August 2021. She was born on September 28, 2016 to Ramonica Smith and Jeremy Ninham and was given her Oneida name: Wataw^:láts, meaning "she goes over". She attended Seymour Rock Ledge Primary School as a kindergartener and was a member of the Daddy Gang. Katalayah enjoyed many things throughout her life, including swimming, jumping on the trampoline, playing with chalk, drawing, coloring, blowing bubbles, playing with her cat Nova, going on car rides, and going through the car wash. You could often catch her watching her favorite movies and TV programs, such as Doc McStuffins, Frozen, Coco, Luca, Ferdinand, Trolls, and the Book of Life. Katalayah was also a snack enthusiast and would always chase a waterfall or lake whenever she saw one. More than anything, though, she loved spending as much time as she could with her beloved family.
