Technologent wrote a blog post in memory of her.
Part of it reads as follows:
Neysa has brought so much joy, fun and laughter to Technologent -- she will be greatly missed by all!
Her brother, Cody Davis, says that she was "over the top fun, almost to the crazy fun," and that she "always made people laugh."
One of her colleagues established a GoFundMe page on behalf of Neysa's family. The effort has already raised more than $85,000 (as of October 2, 2017).
