Paige Kelsey Bergman

Paige Kelsey Bergman, a cherished daughter, sister, and beloved friend, was born on October 3, 1998, in Columbus, Ohio. With a heart full of passion and spirit, she left an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of knowing her. Though her journey was marked by many challenges, Paige’s strength, warmth, and deep capacity for affection inspired everyone around her. She passed away peacefully on March 9, 2026, in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Paige found joy in movies, television shows, reading books, and the beautiful melodies she created by listening to and playing musical instruments. Family was the cornerstone of her life. She was the beloved daughter of Steve and Tracy Bergman and the treasured sister of Shane (Christina) Bergman and Chase (Kerissa) Bergman. She is also survived by her nephew, Henry Bergman, and her devoted dog, Ozzy, who brought her comfort and companionship. Her life was enriched by her grandparents, Carl and Julie Bergman, her late grandmother, Rita Holmes, and the loving care of her home caregivers. Paige’s circle of love extended to many uncles, aunts, cousins, and countless friends who stood by her throughout her life.

One of Paige’s greatest accomplishments was her central role in “Paige’s Posse,” a devoted group that, for more than twenty years, gathered to raise funds and hope for the treatment and eventual cure of Rett Syndrome. Her courage and determination served as a beacon for all who faced similar struggles. Her smiles, laughter, and boundless joy remain in the hearts of those who shared in her journey, a lasting reminder of the enduring power of love and hope.
