He moved to Florida as a teenager with limited education but with a very sharp witted intelligence having the ability to problem solve and invent many things. He was a member of the Masons with a hefty appetite for southern cooking and married his predeceased wife of 53 years, Alice Sheffield. He loved to travel to visit family and friends and when he was not on the open road which he knew very well, he would be watching a cowboy show on the television.
On March 30, 2021 he was called home to be with the Lord but before leaving this earth he reconnected with absent family so that those he would be leaving behind could strengthen one another.
He is survived by his children; Tony Sheffield, Lola Mae Sheffield, Elaine Sheffield,Tarrence Sheffield,(Jolynn) and Michelle Sheffield. His Grandchildren; George Robertson, Checola Robertson, Samuel Pratt, Krystal Robertson, Alexis Lowe, Andre Sheffield, Demetrius Sheffield, Taryn Sheffield, and Tyre Sheffield. His great-grandchildren; Keaira Sheffield, Dra'Nilayh Matthews, Nehemiah Robertson, and Naleah Cherenfant.
He was always helpful, giving and welcoming to share at the drop of a dime. He will be loved and missed by us all.
