WATERTOWN, NY — Cierra N. Grant, 26, passed away peacefully on Saturday, Feb. 23, 2019, at home surrounded by family and friends after battling cancer for two years.

Calling hours will be 4 to 6 p.m. Thursday, March 7, at the Reed & Benoit Funeral Home, Watertown, with a memorial service beginning at 6 p.m. with Rev. Jonas Tondayu officiating.

She enjoyed playing the violin, happy planning, knitting, and being around family and friends.

She is survived by her mother Nicole A. Grant, stepfather Barney Johnson (Daddy Jay-as she called him), her sister Emerald Johnson, her brother Jovan Johnson, her loving boyfriend Eric Clark; her Grandmother, Cathy Grant, Watertown and several aunts, uncles, cousins, and other family members.
