I'm Mamadell, I have so many memories of sista, as a little girl she always wanted to come to our house. As a little girl we always petted her and she grew up with her other siblings, those who were close and never forget her mother and father. We were all close as a family. Now sista it's time to sleep, with all the problems we had it's now time to sleep sista and soon to wake up to a new world with all our family, forever peaceful with no more pain. (Rev 21:3,4) — Love you always Mamadell

I remember going to sister house a lot when we were little to see sister and buddy. We used to sit in the kitchen at the table while they talked. I remember sister always giving us something to eat I think cookies but lil greg said she always offered us ice cream. Whatever food it was it was given out of kindness. I'll always remember her kindness. May she rest and sleep well, and may our hearts rest in knowing she'll awaken soon in a new world.

My name is Neise. Iam next to Sista. I have so many fond memories of us as I was growing up. Sista was very generous and loved to entertain. When she introduced her sisters to her friends she would light up and say " yall these are my sister. As the baby sister said, we look forward to a big Resurrection reunion of the WINDLESS FAMILY. And to my dear brother Ba' Bro. We love you. Our prayers are with and Shelia. Ba' Bro I know that you have a knowledge of the resurrection, so keep that hope my brother.

Carrie aka Neise Windless

For The Windless Family. Sista was the oldest girl and I'm the baby girl, last of them all. Sista always say, "hey ba". I love knowing I had a big sister{s} and been shown LOVE. Sista was always caring, always protective. She will be truly missed, looking forward to hearing her saying "hey ba" again. The Bible promises a Resurrection where I'll see all my Loved ones again, my Dad, other siblings and what a Reunion that will be. Acts24:15. So, Family hold, it won't be long...it's just around the corner. LOVE Ba-Sheilah

Sheilah Straughter aka (Baby-Sheilah)
