We just learned about Sheila yesterday. Words always seem inadequate at times like this, especially when a person is made to realize how far-flung his family connections have gotten. We want you to know, nevertheless, that our thoughts are with you.
Love,
Dan (cousin) and Vivian Dorman

We were saddened to hear of Sheila's passing. Our love and prayers go out to the family. We cherish the memories of the wonderful years we spent together with our boys on the soccer field. God bless her.

Roscoe, I am so sad to learn of Sheila's passing. I hadn't seen her since I saw the two of you at Karen's wedding party, and I didn't know of her cancer.
I have many good memories of our work together at DU. She made a difference in so many ways, not the least of which is that she made you happy.
My thoughts are with you,

I worked with Sheila on a board of directors. We spoke twice a month though we never met in person for 18 months. She was the ultimate professional and super strong, smart, kind and encouraging. I will miss Sheila. Such a loss for all those who knew her. She will be missed. RIP.

Wow, I'm shocked and saddened by the loss of our dear classmate and friend. Sheila was an amazing woman and I'm proud of the legacy she is leaving for her family. Hugs and sincere sympathy to her entire family. Memories are the legacy of love. Rest in Peace, Sheila.

My first memory of sheila was when i was two or so asking me if she could help me blow my nose instead of my mom ,which i happily agreed to i loved her so....my next memory of her was when i was maybe four running around a store with chris jumping out at people from huge round clothes racks scaring them and her dragging chris and i outside to reprimand us and her just looking at our little faces and laughing out loud saying "you too shouldn't be trying to scare people"!She was so much ...
