Shondra Buchanan , 55, of Kalamazoo, Michigan, passed on May 07, 2023. Shondra was born on January 04, 1968.

Shondra came from nothing and ended up leaving a stamp on the world forever. Her beauty and grace will be honored for years to come. Shondra grew up to not only embrace her mixed cultures but has taught generations behind her to accept themselves and cherish their cultures. She stood for all African American, and Native American women who were treated poorly. The world is lucky she left her mark on it through her literature.
