Sheila passed away surrounded by family and friends, united through their shared experiences of her loving kindness, compassion and fun-loving ways.? She was a teacher and community builder, whose generosity knew no bounds.

She had a passion for riding horses and bushcraft and was a prolific tinkerer who created many beautiful/practical?objects.? Her values and beliefs were deeply rooted in Indigenous ways of knowing, as many of her creative projects reflect.

Sheila is now forever free to hike her mountains and paddle her way through peaceful waters.?

Deepest sympathies. Loved her great sense of humor. My children had her as a teacher at St. Francis Elementary School.
