Khalifa’s mother Peachie Wimbush was by LaLa’s side at the time of her passing. She honored her daughter with a touching quote from Sally Field’s character M’Lynn Eatenton in Steel Magnolias.

“There was no noise, no tremble, just peace,” she wrote. “Oh God(dess), I realized as a woman how lucky I am. I was there when that wonderful creature drifted into my life and I was there when she drifted out. It was the most precious moment of my life.” Peachie added: “I have seen, heard, and felt every bit of your love.”

Dorien was reportedly assigned male at birth. Through the years, her gender expression was that of a female and her obituary assigned her feminine pronouns.
