I feel as if I have lost part of my own family because of the closeness between our two families. Sheila was, and always will be, a very important part of my life as a friend and classmate. May God grant His special peace to all family members and let his presence be known to one and all during this time.

Shelia is an "Angel" looking out for all of you. She was a friend, classmate, a very sweet, kind, loving person. She loved her family more than anything. She will be missed here on earth but she is with each and everyone of you. She lives in your heart and through you. Bless all of you.
Thanks so much,
Cathy Elder Anderson
