Celebrating the life of

Kai Hargett

Passed away on August 27, 2023

Kai Hargett

Born Nicholas Allen Hargett, Kai Hargett, passed away Sunday, Aug 27, 2023 at the tender age of 16, too soon.

Kai was born an old soul in Rincon, GA, to parents Steven Douglas Brown and Catherine Juanita Bunch.  She was a senior at Georgia Connections Academy and previously attended Islands High School where she was a member of the Concert Band and Chorus.

Kai was funny, smart, talented and generous.  She loved music and dabbled in many aspects as a self-taught musician of numerous instruments.  She enjoyed vintage records, composing & singing using her formal training or playing by ear.  Always the creator and builder she made many fully functional Cos-Play & Halloween costumes complete with gear like a dragon costume with a working jaw & a slithering tail or the to-scale Samori sword.  All made from cardboard boxes, spray paint, old clothes & scraps around the house with a glue gun, needle and thread.  Kai's daily go-to was art across mediums: sketching, drawing, painting, and sculpting.

In addition to her parents, Kai is survived by her grandmothers Catherine (Terry) Boykin and Gwendolyn Dee Brown both of Savannah, Ga; her brothers Justin Perkins of SC; Dakota Hargett and Christopher Hargett (Nyssa) of Westland, MI; Steven Len Brown of Dodge City, KS; Jesse Brown of Hayes, KS; her sisters Britani Brown of Columbus, OH; Shyenne Hargett of Savannah, GA; Kelsi Hargett and Carissa Hargett of Statesboro, GA; Sarah Anderson-Brown of San Bernardino, CA and many aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.

Autism served Kai well.  She embraced all her eccentricities.  And, with conviction and bravery She followed her path to Transness. We will miss her.

A celebration of Kai's life will be held at 2:00 p.m. at Fox & Weeks Funeral Directors, Islands Chapel. The family will receive friends at the funeral home for one hour prior to the service. Burial will be in the Catholic Cemetery.

Kai will be missed. The people who share her challenges have lost their beacon and are now tasked to shine without her. Reflect the better lights of this world with determination so that we can a shine from within. God, Love, Life are synonymous for us to share light with eachother. Kai needed to glow; let us reflect on that light she had while here.

- Mitchlers, Marietta, Georgia

I am heartbroken that you have lost your precious child - It always seems that the most beautiful and kind souls leave early. I have no doubt your daughter will continue to inspire and give others the ability to understand love and compassion.
