Life's Reflection
Elaine Ferguson Shropshire AKA (Cadillac Queen) born June 14, 1959, the fourth of six to the proud parents of Herman and Rebecca Ferguson, who preceded her in death and also her oldest sister, Mertis.
Elaine received the introduction to her education at Tchula Attendance Center in 1977. Also, faring her education at Holmes Junior College in Cosmetologist and later in 1985 received her CDL license.
Elaine was a woman of many talents and passions. At TAC she played basketball, she had a jump shot from the corner, today terminology three-point line. In 1979, she traveled to Fort Campbell, KY. to be the nanny for her niece, because her sister was singing this song by the Beatles, “Help I Need Somebody!” Her enthusiasm to travel from state to state motivated her to apply her CDL license working for KLLM Transport Services from 1992 to 2000. Her Favorite football team was Philadelphia Eagles; she would sing Fly Eagles Fly during the Super Bowl.
Elaine was hilarious, the only person that answers the phone saying “Hello Moto!”
She leaves to cherish her memories: two daughters: Lakeshia and Cedella (Deryncio Loggins). Two beautiful granddaughters: Kaliyaha and Ceriyah. Her siblings, Mallorie Sample, Patricia Morris (Edward), Herman Jr., Odell and brother in law Mobile Williams. And a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and very special friend, Horace Jordan.
Praying for you all strength during this difficult time. She will truly be missed. Praying for peace and understanding in the days to come. One call away ❤️🙏🏾
