I am so deeply sorry for your sudden loss. I was on vacation when I received news of Shelia's passing. I was so sad and shocked. I had just spoken with her a couple of weeks ago at our building. I had not seen her in awhile and was amazed at how great she looked. She shared with me about her surgery and I told her I was going to go thru the same thing. She said it was really hard, but she felt better. I always loved talking to her, especially about her dogs, when she worked in our building. She was always so sweet and funny. She will be truly missed by all those that had the privelege to know her. May God lift each of you up in his arms and carry you thru the weeks and months ahead. I know she is at peace and with the Lord. I wish each of you peace and will keep you all in my prayers. Diane Hagedorn

My thoughts and prayers go out to all of Sheila's famiy, friends and co-workers. She and I worked beside each other in Wilson many years ago. I enjoyed getting to know her. She was smart, dedicated and could make you laugh. My son thought so much of her. On occasion I would bring him with me to the office and Sheila got to know him and found out he collected Comic Books. One day she comes in and brought Matt a couple of them. He was thrilled. I lost my son almost 6 years ago and will cherish the books forever. Sheila will be missed so much! God Bless you all...

I got to know Sheila when our family moved to NC in 1985. At first I was one of her Church leaders, but our relationship turned into a long lasting friendship. As we moved away, she came to visit us in SC, NY and UT. I love her dearly. She was very bright, talented and funny and I admired her love for her family. I know she is at peace now and hope she knows how many love and miss her.
