    My deepest, most sincere condolences go to Sheila Ray's children and family. She was my best friend for almost 20 years and I love her like a sister. We never had one disagreement and laughed until we cried sometimes. She was the kind of person that would give you the shirt off her back and argue with you if you did not take it, if you were in need. It was such an honor to know and love her. I am a better person for knowing and growing with her and I will miss her like there is no tomorrow. Thank you.

    I will always remember your mother being funny but yet stern Andrea.I always loved your mom’s hair styles, I don’t think she ever believed me when I told her though, but YES Shelia if you can hear me now I never once lied I adored every last one of your hair styles, you rocked them all!I also thought you were the most beautiful mother out of all our friends.Your mother loved you & Russell dearly, as I know Andrea you really did your very best to do right by your mother & take care of her to the best of your ability considering your own health situation.You’re an awesome daughter & I know she is very proud of you & Earl for all you guys have done.She was extremely lucky to have you guys.I write this with a very heavy heart, I am so so sorry for your loss. During these feelings of grief and difficult times, I can only hope that all your happiest and precious moments you’ve had with your mother turn into fond memories & help get you through this hard time. I love you sis remember that!
