Sheila was a wonderful kind person always smiling and had something nice to say. She was beautiful! We had a lot of fun together watching all her Danielle Steel movies! Also, her trip to visit me on the beach was such great memories! Rest In Peace Sheila

What a wonderful lady. Some of my favorite moments in my life were being with her in Hilton Head, or Atlanta or Indy. She was so sweet and so funny and just a truly exceptional person. We will all be missing a piece of our hearts because of this loss. My condolences to her family……… Jim Rice
I am so very sorry for your loss.
I knew Sheila mainly through the loving stories told about her by her nieces Kathleen and Colleen. May light perpetual shine on Sheila as well as her late brother William, his wife Ann and their daughter Colleen. God bless all who mourn. I’m sure Sheila was loved by many. April
