Lakeshia Walker Obituary

LAKESHIA 'BLAY' DENISE WALKER ROCKFORD - An extraordinary angel transitioned from this life to heaven on Saturday, Jan. 7, 2012. Lakeshia "Blay" Denise Walker went to be with the Lord after a brief illness. She knew Jesus Christ as her personal Savior. Lakeshia lived and celebrated life to the fullest! She played a central role in the lives of all her family and friends. Blay's smile was contagious. Her heart and soul were her three children, Draque Montel Walker, Bryce Benjamin Walker-Ollins and Mya Faye Walker. She was an exceptional mother and her legacy of love lives on in her children. "Blay" was also a wonderful daughter, granddaughter, sister and niece. A void is left in the lives of all who loved her. Born in Bay City, Mich., Lakeshia moved to Rockford with her parents and graduated from Auburn High School in 1993. She furthered her education, graduating from Rock Valley College. She was employed at Morning Star Assisted Living as a LPN and was working toward an advanced nursing degree. Lakeshia leaves to cherish her memory, her children, Draque, Bryce and Mya; her loving parents, Wanda Faye and Benjamin Harris; brothers, Terrance Benjamin Harris and Benjamin Donaldson; and sister, Alicia Nicole Harris, all of Rockford. "Blay" will be missed by her grandmother, Mary Alice Walker "Grammin" of Bay City, and grandparents, Major and Charlene Robinson of Saginaw, Mich.; special great-aunts, Clara Davis (Charles) of Bay City, Greere Mency of Duarte, Calif., and Rosie Jones of Bay City; great-uncle, Samuel Joseph Gipson (Grace) of Saginaw; aunts, Denise Gipson-Tyiska, Crystal Byas, Tondalear Walker and Tina Daniels (William); and uncles, Michael and David Walker, all of Bay City, Raymond Harris of Mississippi and aunts, Ardella and Delores Harris of Saginaw; aunts, Marilyn Clemons of Texas, Denise Tuck of Florida and uncles, Major Robinson Jr., of Tennessee and Berry Robinson of Ohio; nieces and nephews, Makalia Watkins Harris, Adrieonnia Watkins Harris, Terrance Benjamin Harris, Materrion Benjamin Harris, Azariah Donaldson and Artese Donaldson; special cousins, Andrew Walker, William Daniels, Vincent and Vischell Berry, Samuel Gipson Jr., Lavonda Kay Gipson and Clara Mency. The family acknowledges Lakeshia's adopted aunt and uncle, Veronica and Gary Matsey and lifelong friends, "The Hot Clique", and a host of friends who knew and loved her! Predeceased by father, Greg Robinson; grandfather, Dock C. Walker; grandparents, Benjamin and Roberta Harris; and significant friend, Russell Malloyd. Service at 11 a.m. Friday, Jan. 13, at St. Paul COGIC, 1001 Bishop Washington Ave., with visitation from 9 a.m. to time of service; the Rev. Doug Anderson will deliver the eulogy.

In Loving Memory of My Niece Lakeshia Denise,

"Blake"...your memory is with me every moment of every day. I miss you so much. You brought the concept of being a positive DIVA to life. Everything about you was well put together.

You were that special someone in our family. I gave you your name...that was such an honor. I always loved how we started our conversations..."Denise, this is Denise!" I long to hear you say that again...just one more time. I know we will meet again on the other side and I will hear you say it again. I miss the small things that we did together, like sleeping with you on vacations and going to Logli's!

Your sudden departure has had a devasting and significant impact on our family. It has made a close-knit family even closer, and strengthened our relationship with our Lord and Savior! God makes no mistakes. His will has been done, and I ask Him daily to help me accept it.

We all have a special place in our hearts for your children, Draque, Bryce and Mya. Thank you for them, and doing a marvelous job in raising them! They are all well rounded kids. I know that me and the rest of the family will be there for them. Not to worry about your babies.

We also have our arms around your Mom, Dad, Brothers and Sister, too! As you would say, "We got this".

I will not forget the great time we had at Draque's graduation. You were definately the proud Mommy! Rocking your stilletto heels.

You left behind a great family and wonderful friends "the Hot Chiques". We will always celebrate your life.

Rest in the arms of Jesus, my beautiful niece, until I see that smile again.

Love,

Aunt Denny

My Beautiful Lakeside
I just do not understand WHY. I am praying that the Lord gets me thru this. My heart is just crushed, It is a pain that I have never experienced. You have been the SHINING STAR of our family. A week never went by and we would not talk to each other, sometimes,just to say Hey and then there were many times when we would talk for hours. I am going to really miss those talks. I will never forget Draque's graduation we all had such a wonderful time, and we where so proud of Draque and you too cause you definitly did a excellent job with Draque, Bryce and Mya. Rest in Peace My Bumble Bee I promise you I will be there and do all I can for them. I also know how you were about your Mother, Brother, Sister and Dad, I want you to know that I GOT THIS. When we reunite we will still go on our FANTISIC VOYAGE. I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU. LOVE HUGS AND KISSES,
Aunt Tonda

To the Harris/Walker Family and also to the livelong friends' of Blay, may God give you the comfort and peace in this difficult time. God makes no mistake, but it does hurt deeply to see the good die so young. I am personally saddened and awakened by this. Blay will NEVER be forgotten.

Blay .....where do I begin what can I say at this point there are no words that can comfort anyone when you lose a loved one. This has came as a shock to me I haven't seen you since graduating from high school but referencing with the Hot Clique on facebook I knew you was still around and okay...your presence will be missed you was a lovely person with a heart full of passion and you helped those you met along the way...God has called you home to lead the rest of the children down the right path because you work here on earth had been completed....to the family I will continue to pray for you at this time of your lost but fear not because when the cloud clears and the storm is over joy will come in the morning and she will forever live on in your heart,her children and the fond memories that we share of her time here spent with us ....

R.I.P a beloved sister, mother and friend as well as an AUBURN KNIGHT you will never be forgotten

"GONE TO SOON "
Death brings tremendous heartache and pain. We share your grief and pain.
Family, Be mindful as the days, weeks and months pass by:
Try not to think much about "how soon" Blay was taken from you or how she died; But always be reminded about HOW SHE LIVED HER BEST LIFE(one favored by God-what an awesome gift of life).
It's not somuch about the things Blay gained in life; But let your heart thoughts of her always be about WHAT BLAY GAVE IN LIFE; her best.
We will keep you lifted up in our daily prayers.

Russ & Margaret Davis

To the family of Blay please accept my heart felt condolence in the passing of your loved one. I hadn't seen Blay in quite a awhile, we where mutual friends through Shonteda back in the day. All I can say is Let God comfort you through this trying time. He is a healer and a great way maker. Rest in peace Blay.

To Blay's Family,
May the Lord be with you at this time to lift you and give you strength. Blay touched a lot of lives during her time here. We all knew her to be a very special, loving, funny, and energetic young woman. I had a lot of fun cheering with Blay at Auburn and I will hold tightly to those memories. I can't remember a day without seeing a smile on her face or hearing something "crazy" come out of her mouth. Please know that I will continue to pray for you guys as the days pass. I'm going to truly miss her!! Much love to you!
