Ms Chanesse Gantt

September 5, 1980 - March 25, 2021

Chanesse Gant was born in Bronx, New York on June 5, 1980. She migrated to Virginia in 1987 and grew up in Newport News, VA until 2012. She then went home to New York City where she continued to live until her untimely passing. Chanesse passed away peacefully on March 25, 2021. Chanesse was always full of life, always laughing and joking; she even knew all the latest dance moves. She could decorate a cardboard box and make it look like a mansion. She was so neat and clean; you could eat off the floor. She loved her music. All kinds of rap, R&B, slow, and gospel. She always had a tune playing. Though she had a big heart, she was a force to be reckoned with. Chanesse loved to cook and shop, and to have her hair laid and nails done. This year she began her own business. It included skin care as well as lashes. She was on her way to big things. She is survived by her mother, Jessica Gant; sisters, Zericka Payne, Loretta Gantt, Dayshima Gantt, and Sincere Gantt; brothers, Ezra Gantt, and Timothy Gantt. Chanesse is also survived by her daughters, Aminah Gantt, Sydne Freeman, and Nashay Todman. Chanesse will be greatly missed. It is hard for us all now, but just remember the sound of her laughter, her craziness, and her jokes. Embrace that warm feeling you got from her smile, knowing she is in your heart. Rest in peace Chanesse.
