Dear family and friends of Sha'Kela,
Words can not express how upset I was when one of my students informed me that Sha'Kela had passed. I was her science teacher for her freshman and sophomore year at EHHS. Sha'Kela held a special place in my heart, I was impressed by her ability. She was such a smart young lady. I spoke to her many times about her potential and what she could become with all that personality and intelligence. This is the first student that I have lost and I am so sad that it had to be someone as amazing as Sha'Kela. I made sure to write her name with the apostrophe because she used to always correct the way I said her name. She would tell me, "No miss, it's SHA' KELA." I will pray for your family.

Kela,
I have been left speechless. Each time a new CD came out,you'd see me coming in BB, you always knew what CD I was there for. (I keep hearing your voice say,Hi Tasha).. You'd direct me where the new cd's were.. We'd talk like old friends..I've watched you grow from a baby into a little lady. Boy,do I remember laughing because who cried the most You or Tay..I have an enormous amount of memories that will forever live in my heart. You will be greatly missed.
To Gonda and Kool;
There are no words that will ever make you have understanding to this loss. I will continue to pray for you two during your journey. It won't be simple. Kela will always be your baby.. Take comfort in knowing she is a beautiful butterfly angel now..
To The Rest of the family;
Please allow God to direct you during this time of sorrow. Kela would want everyone happy and rejoicing..
Kela will be missed dearly but definitely never forgotten.
From My family to yours, Our deepest sympathy..
Much Love,
Natasha (Huff) Jenkins and Family...

Kool (my 2nd big brother) and Ganda, I can't begin to understand the sorrow and anger that you may be going through with your loss. The bible teaches us that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. I pray you find comfort in knowing that Shakela is safe in HIS arms and that in due time, your pain will find solace there as well.
May God Bless & Keep You in the days, months and years to come.

For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime! Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning.
To the parents of Shakela, as a parent myself I can't imagine what it must feel like to have to bury your child but have faith that the Lord has called your child from labor to reward and now she sits with him smiling down on you. The pain will never go away but know that God will help you deal with this as he has helped us deal with all things in life.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
