    💛 Keepsake Urns in Memory of Sheena 💛

    Many of you have reached out asking if there is a way to keep a small part of Sheena close to you.

    Because of that, keepsake urns are available. I am able to assist with the entire process—purchasing the urn, having it engraved, carefully transferring Sheena’s ashes, and shipping it directly to you. Every step will be handled with care, respect, and intention.

    These keepsake urns are the same design as Sheena’s full-size urn, so you will have a small, matching piece in her memory.

    📏 Please note:
    The keepsake urn is approximately 3 inches tall.
    Photos shared are enlarged to show detail and design.

    ✨ Each keepsake will include engraving:
    Sheena Lee Elder
    12/20/1985 – 3/19/2026

    a short personalized line (Beloved Friend, Cousin, Niece, etc.)
    (Engraving is limited to 20 characters.)

    💲 Cost Breakdown:
    • Urn + engraving: $42.22
    • Shipping (after ashes are placed): approx. $35–$50 depending on location

    All keepsakes will be shipped using USPS Priority Mail Express, following all required guidelines for cremated remains. This service includes tracking, signature confirmation, and up to $100 insurance coverage.

    📧 If you would like a keepsake urn:
    Please email: [email protected]
    Subject line: Keepsake Urn

    Include in your email:
    • Your engraving request
    • Shipping address
    • Phone number (in case I need to reach you)

    You will receive an invoice through PayPal from Essence & Echoes CK for the urn. Shipping will be invoiced separately once your keepsake is ready to send.

    Due to the custom and deeply personal nature of these items, all sales are final and non-refundable.

    This is simply something I am offering for those who feel comfort in having a small piece of Sheena with them 🤍

About this fundraiser

Sheena Is 40 years old and is Fighting for Her Life — Please Help Before It’s Too Late

Right now, my dear friend is fighting for her life.

She has ovarian cancer that has spread to her lungs, and on February 6th she is facing a full hysterectomy—a life-saving surgery she cannot postpone. She is in constant pain, in and out of the hospital, and has been forced to stop working entirely because her body simply can’t keep up anymore.

This battle comes after years of devastating loss.

She lost her mother 11 years ago.

She lost her father 5 years ago.

And just one year ago, she lost her brother, Cody—a loss that shattered her world and left her struggling to survive emotionally and financially.

Since Cody passed, she has been barely staying afloat. Bills have piled up. She is trapped in a deeply unstable housing situation and continues to endure ongoing court stress—all while facing cancer, grief, and physical pain that never lets up.

She is only 40 years old, single, and doing everything she can just to get through each day.

Yet even in this unimaginable storm, she remains one of the most loving, selfless people you could ever meet. She is a true giver—someone who would hand you the shirt off her back without hesitation. She finds moments of peace in coloring, building Legos, listening to R&B and hip-hop, watching TV, and swimming when her body allows. She holds onto hope, even when it would be easier to give up.

She currently lives with her best friend—someone who came into her life two years ago and became her light through every dark moment. Her friend has stood beside her through sickness, grief, and fear without ever walking away. Her friend’s mother reminds her so much of her own mom that it feels like a piece of comfort she thought she had lost forever. Alongside them are her five dogs and rescued kitty, who depend on her and give her a reason to keep fighting.

But love cannot pay medical bills.

Love cannot cover rent, utilities, or basic needs.

And right now, she needs help—urgently.

This Fundraiser is to help her:

Cover medical bills, surgery, and recovery costs

Survive while unable to work due to cancer and pain

Maintain housing and basic living expenses

Focus on healing instead of fearing what comes next

She has an incredible support system of friends—many who are family by heart—but the reality is that she cannot do this alone. She is counting on complete strangers like YOU!

If you can donate, please do.

If you can’t donate, please share.

Every single act of kindness helps keep her afloat during the fight of her life.

Thank you for reading. Thank you for caring. And thank you for helping give her the chance to heal.
