Donations for Shari Parrington’s service expenses

Hi, my name is Tenessa. I am Shari Turner/Parrington’s daughter.

We had the most unexpected tragedy happen on May 5th 2022. The passing of my beautiful, loving, warm hearted mom. She passed away in her sleep and words cannot describe the pain I feel, as well as the rest of her children(Naythan, Eric and Sierra) and her loved ones.

My mother was so devastated and heartbroken of the passing of my nanny, Ann Morrison last year and my mom just never fully recovered from the heartbreak.

My mom fought as hard as she could to relieve her of her heartache; Reaching out, working crazy hours to occupy her mind and helping others the best she could when most days she did not even want to get out of bed because of how much she missed her own mom, only to attempt to cover the pain she was so deeply feeling. I cannot even begin to explain in words how much sorrow she had felt, if you knew my mom you knew how broken she was.

I tried my hardest every day to make her proud and dim her sadness, but in the end god made the decision to reunite my mom and my nanny.

I am hesitantly asking for some help, to make this experience a little less hard for me to deal with almost on my own. With the help/guidance of her close loved ones such as Aj, Deborah, Trish, Shari, Stacy, Tony, Becky and so so many more I can try to get by however, they can only do so much.

That is why, again I am asking for help, donations, advice anything really to help me get by.

With the costs of cremation, service, storage and anything else that comes my way I want to do everything I can to ensure my mom is peacefully put to rest.

If you are unable to donate through go fund me you can contact me directly for my email transfer or if you want to help out with just a little advice or reassurance. Anything will help me.

I am personally not sure what to do moving forward but with the help of my family, friends and loved ones I’m hopeful my pain/stress can be even the slightest bit alleviated.

My mother loved and cared so deeply for all of you. She is so very sorry that her time had to end so unexpectedly. Please remember my mom for the endless love, happiness and joy she continuously shared throughout our community and in our hearts.

I promise, no matter what I will ensure she will rest peacefully. I will do everything and anything for her to make that happen.

26 years wasn’t enough. But I know she will be watching over ALL of us and want to see us all thrive and be happy and to not be sad for too long.

Lastly I am personally here for anyone who needs to talk or feel a little closer to my mom, as she was not only my mother when I did not have a father growing up, she was my best friend and my soul mate. And if you want a little bit of her, you got me.

Thank you for your time. I love you forever mom. ABAAPAAHATN
