Shante' Alease Rhodes

The Lord blessed James Byron Rhodes and Kasandra Alease Gordon with a beautiful and loving babygirl, and she was named Shante’ Rhodes. Shante’ was indeed a true “Daddy’s Girl.” Shante’ accepted Christ at an early age. She attended grade school in Eagle Lake, Texas and High School at Rice High School, graduating class of 2005. After completing high school, Shante’ started to work at Wal-Mart in Columbus, Texas. She was a dedicated and faithful employee for 18 years. Shante’ was always so happy and willing to help others. She was adored because she was so positive and fun to be around. Shante’ had a love and a passion for spending time and enjoying her family and kids. The love she had transformed the lives of everyone she encountered. Shante’ really enjoyed going to her Granny’s on Sundays.
