In Loving Memory of Tyronesha Shanae Sherlock-Benton
With hearts weighed down by grief and sorrow, we pause to honor and remember the life of Tyronesha Shanae Sherlock-Benton, whose life was tragically lost on the night of April 24, 2026. What began as an ordinary evening quickly turned into an unimaginable loss—one that has left behind deep pain, unanswered questions, and a silence that can never truly be filled.
At approximately 11:47 p.m., officers with the Fayetteville Police Department responded to a single-vehicle crash at the intersection of Raeford Road and the I-295 south entrance ramp. According to preliminary reports, Tyronesha, 36, was traveling eastbound in a 2013 Dodge Charger when the vehicle, reportedly moving at a high rate of speed, was unable to safely navigate the right turn onto the ramp. In a matter of seconds, a life full of experiences, memories, and meaning was tragically cut short. Tyronesha was pronounced deceased at the scene.
Beyond the details of that heartbreaking night was a woman whose life held value, purpose, and connection. Tyronesha was more than a name in a report—she was someone deeply loved, someone who brought her own light into the lives of others. Whether through her presence, her laughter, or the quiet ways she showed care, she leaves behind memories that will continue to live on in the hearts of those who knew her.
Her passing is a profound reminder of how fragile life can be, how quickly moments can change, and how important it is to hold our loved ones close. For her family and friends, the weight of this loss is immeasurable, and the days ahead will be filled with both grief and remembrance.
As we honor Tyronesha Shanae Sherlock-Benton, we extend our deepest condolences to all who are mourning her. May her memory be a source of comfort, her life a lasting reflection of love, and her spirit forever remembered by those who carry her in their hearts.
Tyronesha’s life mattered. She was cherished. And she will never be forgotten.
