Sherrell Evon Evette Riles was born on February 23, 1976, to Toni Riles and William Riles in Little Rock, Arkansas. She departed this life on February 14, 2026, at the age of 49.
Sherrell had a huge heart. She was a devoted mother and grandmother who loved going on family vacations with her children, grandchildren, and friends. A proud Dallas Cowboys fan, she extended love and kindness to everyone — even strangers. Sherrell was always willing to feed, house, transport, or sit with anyone in need. Although fiercely protective of her grandchildren, she often reminded everyone that she refused to be a “regular babysitter.”
Her radiant smile, caring spirit, and genuine love will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
Sherrell was preceded in death by her mother, Toni Bell-Riles, and her grandmother, Barbara Jean Pettis.
She leaves to cherish the loving memories of her legacy, her children: Christopher Riles, Angelica and Angelic’ Hester, Kylan and Akira Fudail; grandchildren: Ariyah Tensley, Ariel Moore, Elijah Riles, Ayden Moore, Aa’leah Robinson, Devron Roberts Jr., Jayden and Ja’Kari Grant; father, William Riles; three sisters: Tonora and Angela Riles, and Barbara Miller; two brothers, Terry Jones and Baron Taylor; one aunt, Phyllis Long; devoted client and friend, Mr. Terry Edwards; and a host of other relatives and friends who will forever hold her in their hearts.
