Zahari Reign Solee

Princess Zahari Reign Solee was born on November 4, 2020, in Little Rock, Arkansas, to Zakiyah Johnson and Tyrone Solee. She spent her beautiful life growing up in her tiny castle in Stuttgart, Arkansas, where she ruled with love, laughter, and a sparkle that lit up every room.

Zahari was a full-time princess. If she had it her way, she would have worn a princess dress every single day—and often did. She was the proud big sister to Zamara and Tahir Solee, whom she loved deeply and wasn’t shy about reminding them who was in charge. Though she never attended school, Zahari was a true scholar. Her love for learning, creativity, and imagination was boundless. She memorized songs with ease, showed off her hilarious dance moves, and brought joy with every word she spoke.

Like many kids her age, Zahari had her trusty tablet—her “chargie”—which was her magical escape into a world of favorite YouTubers and the adventures of Ladybug. To know Zahari was to love her. She was a radiant ray of sunshine who loved to talk, always filling the air with sweetness and sass.

On June 27, 2024, Zahari’s life took an unexpected turn. What began as a headache led to an emergency brain surgery the very next morning at Children’s Hospital. While her family worried, Zahari was preparing for the fight of her life. She underwent nine hours of brain surgery.

A few weeks later, she was diagnosed with ETMR (Embryonal Tumor with Multilayered Rosettes) - a rare and aggressive brain cancer. The journey that followed lasted ten months and was filled with both hardship and hope. Though the diagnosis was grim and doctors were uncertain, Zahari’s family never stopped believing. Their faith never wavered, and Zahari never stopped shining.

Throughout her battle, she continued to live life as the princess she was born to be. She was strong, joyful, and full of grace. Cancer never took her spirit.

On April 17, 2025, Zahari Reign Solee was fully healed as she received her heavenly crown and rang her victory bell in Heaven. Her story is not one of loss, but of triumph, courage, and everlasting love.

Awaiting Zaharis’ arrival in Heaven are her family members: Travis Lucas, Odell Gary, Milton Gary, Sr., Taylor Jefferson, Ricky Henson, Sr., Eunice Henson, Sophia Boyd, Joyce Boyd, Kenny Johnson, Beulah Johnson, Barbara Jean Harris, and Betty Jo Harris.

Zahari leaves to cherish her beautiful memories her parents: Zakiyah Johnson and Tyrone Solee, Jr.; siblings: Tahir Solee and Zamara Solee; grandparents: Barbara Johnson, Warren Johnson, Lawrence Boyd, and Kimberly Ice Snowden; along with a host of aunts, uncles, cousins and friends to also mourn her passing.

Zahari was deeply loved and will be missed beyond measure. This is not goodbye—it’s until we meet again.

We love you, Zahari.
