Sheila, I met you in 1987 and later became your sister of 20 years, you taught me so much from your giving ways to your silliness, being a mother to Reese, hard worker etc. Their was nothing in life you couldn't do and you made the best crawfish bits. I could go on and on of the wonderful person you was. I can truly say God got a special angel. Take your rest my Sister :'( Karen Melson Bryant

Sheila I loved you from the moment I first met you. You were so real and down to earth. You returned that same genuine love that what extended you. Apart from you passing away, the sadest thing is my Mom your aunt Minnie who loved you as well can't say good bye so I will say it from the both of us. I want miss your beautiful smile or laughter, simply because I see it now and hear it as I type this. Mommy made it a point to visit you when we were there a few years ago. We had such a good time

Sheila I loved you the first time I met you. You were so real and down to earth. And I loved you for that. The saddest thing outside of you passing is that my Mom Aunt Minnie can't say good bye. So I will say it for both her and myself. I will miss your laughter and beauty inside and out. The best thing is that you knew how much my family and I loved you. I live on the memories we shared as kids. I love you Sheila. Lisa and Minnie

Some of the most delightful memories from my childhood are filled with your infectious laughter. I will never forget when you visited and we went horseback riding. Perhaps we should have not laughed so hard as your horse veered off the trail and with you screaming "help" he galloped across an open field. What fun we had that day… Your death has left an awful void; yet, I trust your rest is peaceful now. Love you forever…Your cousin Jan.
