Tesha and I met many years ago working together at Kelsey Seybold in Silverlake. She was always a bright spot and made everyday a good day. She loved her family and was so proud of them. She talked about her husband and kids often and was always smiling. She made all of her patients and coworkers laugh and feel special. I will pray for you Andre, William and Kailah… I know your hearts are aching. I’m SO sorry for your loss. She will be greatly missed!
LaTisha was a Great Pediatric Nurse at Kelsey Seybold when we first met at Silverlake. She is the one who taught me just about everything in Pediatric's. She loved her husband Andrea and always spoke highly of him. Her children were here pride and joy. Latisha Strawder was Everything a woman should be, Respectulfal to all people, Kind, Coragouse, Beautiful, Smart, Giving, and her love for other shined. I will miss her and this world will be less bright without her in it.
LaTeshia and I met a few months ago during her training as our new immunization nurse. I was one of her main preceptors and we quickly became good friends. Despite life's challenges, she was always in good spirits and greeted everyone with a smile. She was easy to approach and fun to work with. My heart aches for her family as she left this place too soon. All I can say is we do not ever get over the loss of a loved one, we just learn to live without them. I pray her family finds peace amidst this tragic loss. She is definitely missed by her coworkers and patients.

LaTeshia Washington, was my moms Leila Washington first granddaughter born and raised in Oakland, California, she was a joy. My mom loved each other so much in life, and now after life, she will be that joy and attachable love we shared as a family, her dad Gregory Washington, and four uncles Avery, Mark, Victor, and Dee. We love Teshia so much.
As a family with her mom Audra, we did our best to shape LaTeshia into the woman she became ready to face the world. Watching her from far and near we saw that great maturation and resulted in a rewarding career, a family of her own Makilia, William, granddaughter, and yes a husband Andre that she boldly introduced to us the family.
We as a family watched from a far, but always near, the woman our niece and daughter had become. Her family at home in California was incredibly important to her as she always sought to keep her generation of our family together, which she did. My niece, my brother's daughter had a loving soul, who got alone with everyone, and she had that way from birth.
I can go on and on about my niece, she was just type of lovable person my mom her grandma grandmother LOVE so much, along with her dad, uncles, brothers, and sister.
Teshia we love you as know, we all will miss you, Love you always our first niece, daugther, granddaughter, sister, your uncle Vic.
Teshia was a very compassionate and talented nurse. She led our immunization services team and trained other employees. She will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by all of us at our clinic. Keeping Andre and the family in our thoughts and prayers !
Tesh and I worked together for many years at Kelsey Seybold, she was an amazing nurse and a great friend to me outside of work. She was one of the first to know about when I was pregnant with my oldest son and twins, and I was able to see her while pregnant with her son. We went thru many seasons of life together, the birth of our sons, the death of family members, ups and downs and supported each other through it all. We loved to laugh and cut up with each other, but when it came down to the business of work, she excelled at what she did and I am so glad I got the opportunity to work with her as we called it our pediatric "dream team". I wanted her to go back to school to get her RN and sit in the cubicle next to me in the clinical education department and was so happy when she started classes so we could be a dream team together again.
I am so saddened by her early departure from this physical earth but know she is in a better place. The Landry family has been praying every night for Andre, William, ZeKailah, and Payton. We all miss you Tesh.
