Aleyna Marie "Princess" Maisonet

Aleyna Marie “Princess” Maisonet Gloversville – It is with great sorrow we announce the passing of our beloved Princess, Aleyna Marie Maisonet. Aleyna passed away peacefully on February 24, 2022 at Albany Medical Center after facing a pediatric heart disease with grace and bravery. She was born in Albany on September 23, 2016 and was five courageous years old. This little princess loved arts and crafts, coloring and stickers of all kinds. She crafted sweet little beaded bracelets and shared her gifts with family. Aleyna loved doing make up and painting her nails in beautiful pinks and purples. She also loved hearts, rainbows, unicorns and Mini Mouse, who she met at Disney World. While you could usually find her in a world of pink, Aleyna’s favorite color was sparkle! Her favorite holiday was Christmas and one year, her Grandpa filled the Christmas tree with blue and silver and topped the magical tree off with a sparkly star. He threw sparkles all over the ceiling, tree, and surrounding area just to see her eyes full of wonder and a heart full of happy. Her one and only favorite furry friend was “Chico”, a tiny Shih Tzu, who was just the right size. She enjoyed eating Oreo cookies with “the shaving cream middle”. Above all, Princess cherished the time she spent with her sisters and her cousins who were her very best friends. Aleyna made an impact that rippled so far and wide making family of all who surrounded her with care and love. Aleyna was predeceased by her father, Noah Maisonet; and her twin sister, Alina Star Maisonet.
