In Loving Memory of Shanna

Hi I’m Shanaya and I am one of 3 sisters of Rosita Ushanna Sherfield-Rankin. Her life was unexpectedly taken from us on November 1, 2023 due to a hit and run accident, in Little Elm TX on highway 380. She was born on September 8, 1982, to Ulysses and Rosie of Paris and Oklahoma Tx. She attended RL Turner High School and later attended KD Studios of Dallas to pursue an acting career. During the journey at KD Studios she touched many of classmates lives with her laughter and enthusiasm for life. Shanna was the sunshine and brightness in everyone’s life that she met. She was a loving mother to 8 beautiful children whom she was greatly passionate & devoted to, and because of this new chapter in life she put her career on hold. She instilled the importance of making every life moment special no matter what. She meant so much to everyone in her life. Her kindness and thoughtfulness will always be remembered in our hearts. She is survived by her husband, Laurence. 5 sons: DJ (24), Bralen (19), Ryan (16), Jayce (10), Shannen (8). 3 Daughters: Alyiah (23), Lauren (17), Timberlyn (5). Parents: Ulysses & Rosie. 3 Sisters: Shamika, Lina, Shanaya & Brother: Tori. We are asking for donations to help with any funeral and memorial costs and also to help the village that will be supporting the children moving forward without the presence of their mother. Any donations will be greatly appreciated and we will be forever thankful to you. Blessings of Prosperity, Love, Peace & Joy may forever be upon you. God Bless You All.
