Arabelle Pa'rys Gertrude Doe

Arabelle Doe was born January 14, 2024, in Philadelphia, PA to Gifty Gilman and Aluntungi Doe. 

She was a bundle of light and energy. She had a big personality and was always on the go! She loved to pose in the mirror, but would never stay still long enough for anyone to take a photo. She loved Minnie Mouse and being dressed up in new clothes and accessories. Belle would leave a mess in her wake everywhere she went, even getting into the shower, sitting in the tub, and turning the water on… fully clothed! 

Belle loved eating apples, but would only take a few bites then move on to the next. She hated the texture of bananas, but would eat any type of eggs. She loved watching her favorite show – Gracie’s Corner. Belle liked to sleep in her brother, TJ’s room. She would squeeze your cheeks, kiss you, and put her hands in your mouth, but only if she liked you! She brought joy and love everywhere she went. She will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her. 

Belle left this earth to go home to her heavenly realm on Wednesday, June 3, 2026.

Belle will be forever loved and missed by her mommy, Gifty Gilman; daddy, Aluntungi Doe; big sisters and brothers, Veah Gilman, TJ Blidi, Acee Blidi, Starr Mulah, Aluntungi Doe Jr., Kyeem Shierron Whitt, and King Gilman; auntie, Dee Bestman; and grandma, Helena Wilson and Gertrude Tallery; and numerous other loving family members and friends.

You Matched Your Name Beautiful

From the first day you was born your eyes were wide open.

I loved to hold you.

I started my day holding you and ended my day holding you.

My Stink, you was my everything.

I'd move a mountain for you with my bare hands.

You represent everything pure in me, my beautiful flower.

Every time I look into your beautiful eyes I could see your potential.

Only took one time for you to learn, my little acrobat.

The play pen could not hold you.

Even after I built barriers around it.

You learned how to tackle it over.

The mark you left with the short time you was here.

You was Gods plan I could not see.

You will always be with me.

Locked in my breast.

My heart burn every time I think of never hearing your voice.

Touching your pretty little face.

Gracie just lost her biggest fan.

From the first day you left the hospital your eyes would be glued on the TV.

You matured me, Stink.

I prepared for you.

And just when I signed my lease you was gone like a flash.

Memories of you smiling at the mirror still haunt me.

I will always love you.

I long to hold you in my hands and kiss your face.

My precious Arabella Doe.
