Shakina Marie Perkins-Moody

Shakina Marie Perkins-Moody was a 34-year-old resident of Germantown, Maryland, known in public records as a mother and member of her local community. Public reporting identifies her home as the 18200 block of Smoke House Court in Germantown and notes that she was 34 at the time of her death on August 4, 2015. Though the public record focuses largely on the circumstances of her death, it also records that she was traveling with her 16-year-old daughter that day — a reminder that she was a parent whose life was intertwined with her child’s.

Available official and news sources do not provide a family-authored obituary or extended personal biography, so many familiar details about Shakina’s life — early years, work, friendships, and daily joys — are not part of the public archive. What is verifiable is that she was a local resident and mother whose loss was noted by Montgomery County authorities and local news. The county’s press release and contemporary coverage record her identity and age and locate her in Germantown, offering the factual backbone for remembrance.

When public detail is limited, a respectful remembrance honors what is known while acknowledging what is not: Shakina was a real person, a mother, and a neighbor in a Maryland community. Her life mattered to the people closest to her, especially her daughter, and that relationship remains the most personal, verifiable detail in the public record. For friends, family, and neighbors seeking to remember her, photos, personal memories, and family statements (if available privately) will give the fullest sense of who she was beyond official notices.

Shakina’s name appears in official records and was memorialized in public statements at the time of her death. For those who wish to honor her memory, consider gathering stories, photographs, and messages from those who knew her best and creating a family-centered memorial that reflects her life, her role as a mother, and the relationships that defined her. Even when public sources are sparse, such remembrances restore a fuller sense of the person behind the headlines.
