Not sure what to say?

I just found out about Sheila's passing today. I am sorry and saddened for your loss. I am lucky to have known her and worked with her all those years ago at the casino. My sincere condolences. Thank you for being a wonderful person to work with, I consider you a friend.

Sheila was a treasured colleague!

I had the pleasure of working with Sheila and being her friend for many of the years we worked together at Wheeler and offer my condolences to her family and the many students she touched with her firm and loving hand. Always fair and always striving to make those around her live up to their potential, she worked twice as hard as those around her, and will never be forgotten. I will always treasure my memories of Sheila and not forget the twinkle in those blue eyes...

I am so very sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Williams. She was my GYM Teacher while I was at Wheeler Middle and High School. She was always pleasant but driven. I will remember her fondly. I send my condolences and warm thoughts to her family in this difficult time. RIP Mrs. Williams

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Dearest Williams Family, Sheila was one of the most amazing women I have ever met. When she first walked into our office at Community Hearing Aids, she and my late husband Ken began sparring, laughing and loving each other. We fell in love with her from the very first moment we met. She was always greeted and adored by our puppy Kramer, as a matter of fact, Kramer continued to receive her loving greeting cards every season, every year for the last 10 years. What an honor to know Sheila, I...

I enjoyed working with Sheila at Wheeler Jr/Sr High. She was a positive, motivating person. My sincerest sympathies to her family.

As a graduate of Wheeler High School '81, her guidance during those times formed as a basis for how to mentor those around you. Bringing our class from Freshman to Disney for our Senior class trip paved a way for how strong a group could be over time. Memories she gave us are great! Mrs. Williams, Thank you.

Sheila Williams was my coach and a positive influence in my life in so many ways. She even brought me to see John Denver in concert. My prayers of peace and my sympathy to her family.
