Memory of Aquila Wallace, Kamya Sims, and Bromehia Sims – Drew, Mississippi
Their lives ended in silence—no chance to scream or run.
A heartbreaking tragedy unfolded in Drew, Mississippi, where Aquila Wallace, 40, and her daughters Kamya Sims, 19, and Bromehia Sims, 18, were senselessly taken from this world. A mother and her children, three lives intertwined by love, ended in a moment that has left an entire community shaken and grieving.
Aquila, a devoted mother, and her daughters Kamya and Bromehia—each with dreams, laughter, and futures waiting to unfold—had no time to cry for one another. No time to call out. Their lives were stolen in an act of violence that speaks not only to the cruelty of the moment but to the irreplaceable loss it leaves behind.
As law enforcement responded to the harrowing scene, the chaos rippled further. Three suspects attempted to flee, leading police on a chase that ended in nearby Rome, Mississippi. During the pursuit, one of the suspects took his own life. The investigation continues, but there are no answers that can soften the weight of this sorrow.
This tragedy has created a deep wound—one that extends far beyond the walls of a single home. Family, friends, classmates, and neighbors are mourning the loss of three beautiful souls. Kamya, with a spirit full of hope. Bromehia, with her bright future ahead. And Aquila, the heart of her family, taken far too soon.
We offer our deepest condolences to those who loved them, to those left searching for comfort amid the pain. Let us remember Aquila, Kamya, and Bromehia not by how their lives ended, but by how they lived—together, with love, and with a bond no act of violence can ever destroy.
May their memories be eternal, and may those grieving find strength in one another as they navigate the unbearable road ahead.
