So sorry to hear the passing of Sheila Gearhart. Her husband Daniel was a cousin of mine and even though I never had the pleasure of knowing him the Gearhart legacy continues through their family.

Love to the entire Gearhart family. Mrs. Gearhart was always such a delight to hang out with and chat with during my high school years. May she rest in peace and may her family find peace knowing that she is finally at rest.

To my biggest supporter in life, she was always there for me threw the good and bad. I'm very sad and will take a long time to recover. My prayers go with you now and for ever.
