It was so sad to hear about the passing of Sheila. She and I worked together for several years that took us to many AF locations. Sheila was the consummate professional and at times comedian making us all laugh. Know she was loved by her family and pray for them during this difficult time.

I had worked for Sheila at WPAFB. She was so people oriented was one of the best bosses I ever worked for. My sincere condolences to her family.

I wish to extend my heartfelt condolences to Dexter and the entire Jones family. Sheila and I were prayer partners many years ago. I remember her soft voice and her love of tennis. I remember she went to see the Williams sisters in Cincinnati. She was very kind. Rest In Peace dear Sheila.
