Sheila Z. Maharaj was born on December 16th, 1944 In Libertville, Rio Claro Trinidad. She was the daughter of Shamoon and Myra Khan. She was a graduate of St. Stephen’s College in Princes Town, Trinidad.
She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, friend, and child of the Most High GOD.
She has gone home to her Lord. She leaves behind her husband Reynold, of 57 years, son Peter, and daughters, Dr. Indira Maharaj-Mikiel MD, Sandira Maharaj, and Vandira Intong, (husband Mark), 10 grandchildren, 4 great-grandchildren, a younger brother; an older sister, nieces, and nephews. She was predeceased by her son Valmic (Mickey).
Sheila, was a teacher, businesswoman, philanthropist, missionary, caretaker, joker, encourager, and adopted mother of many who loved her dearly. She was a member of Connect Church of Abilene Tx. She was a mighty prayer warrior, and woman of great faith. She always did her utmost to exemplify what it meant to be a Proverbs 31 woman.
She was also a total ballbuster, not a tolerator of damn jackassness, and all in all a well-loved P.I.T.A
What is a godly mother? A godly mother is one who loves the lord her GOD with all her heart, soul, mind, and strength, and then passionately, consistently, and unrelentingly teaches her children to do the same. She was such a woman.
