Riley Crossman was a gorgeous 15-year-old teenager from West Virginia. Riley was born December 22, 2003, in Martinsburg, WV, and she shared time between her parent’s homes in Martinsburg and Berkeley Springs, WV. Riley was a beautiful, innocent soul with a laugh that would fill the room. She was a natural artist, a talented dancer, and had the voice of an angel. Riley loved babies and small children; they were always drawn to her, but none more than her little sister and two younger brothers. She was helpful, caring, intelligent, stubborn, and as dramatic as teenage girls come. Riley was a beacon of light and love for her family; she was loving and kind.
In 2019, Riley was growing up and doing what most teenagers do dating. Being 15 years old, like anyone else, she had a crush on one of her schoolmates, Hayden, and the feelings were mutual. Hayden and Riley adored each other, and they started a cute kid romance. Riley’s parents adored him and were so happy that Riley had found a sweet kid. Riley’s parents were divorced, and she had to split home with both of them. While she spent time with both her parents, she would mostly stay at her mother’s place so that she could go to school there. At Riley’s mother's house, she lived with her mother and her boyfriend, Andy McCauley. Everything seemed to be going great, school was going great she just started her Freshman year and it was a great start to the next chapter of her life. Riley tried out for the gymnastics team at school and made the cut. This was exciting for her as she was a model student and what every parent would want in a child.
