To the Family, I was saddened to hear of her passing. LaShanta and I worked together at the State Department in D.C. LaShanta was professional, fashionable, funny, and upbeat. May God comfort your hearts during this sorrowful time. "I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith." 2 Timothy 4:7 Peace & Blessings, Sheila DeVeaux

Praying for the family during this difficult time. LaShanta will always be remembered as a young lady who possessed high standards for herself and for those who crossed her path. She was smart, talented and filled with joy. W. James, LCCTC, Central High

As I reflect on the life of my dear friend all I can think of is Love. She was the epitome of a beautiful soul. She lived her life to the fullest, sharing smiles, songs, laughter, and pure joy amongst the world. As I continue to embrace her memories, I want to say to everyone that Shemia is okay. Continue to live your life and share love with your family and friends. She will be missed but God knows she is resting in peace with Jesus. Rest in Peace! ❤️❤️❤️
