Bianca Rena Carson was born on July 17, 1983, to Valerie West and Leotha Hines. Bianca was a loving daughter, devoted mother, caring wife, and a beautiful soul whose kindness touched everyone she met.

She attended Cleveland Academy High School, where she graduated and began building a life centered around caring for others. Bianca worked as a caregiver and later became a retail manager, showing dedication, strength, and compassion in everything, she did. Even after losing her eyesight due to diabetes, she continued to carry herself with courage and grace. Bianca was a member of The Body of Christ Temple Church; where she would serenade the congregation and the heavens with her gifted voice.

Bianca was married to Phillip Ahrens, and together they were blessed with one son, Aidan Ahrens, who recently celebrated his 17th birthday on May 2, 2026.

Bianca had a smile that could light up any room. Everyone who came in contact with her remembers that beautiful smile, her warm spirit, and the love she shared so freely. She was deeply loved by her mother, who cared for her faithfully, making sure Bianca was comfortable and had everything she needed. Bianca knew how much she was loved, and that beautiful smile remained on her face through it all. She was preceded in death by grandmother, Barbara Jean Carson; grandfathers, A.J. Harris/George Simpkins; aunt, Jackie Carson; and uncle, Daryle Carson.

Her beautiful life will forever be cherished in the lives of her son Aidan Ahrens; mother, Valerie West (Carson); siblings, Joseph West, Barbara A. Carson, and Shawndale Carson; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, friends and family.

Her memory will forever live on in our hearts. Though she may be gone from this earth, the love, strength, and joy she gave will never be forgotten.

“Your beautiful smile and loving spirit will remain with us forever.”
