Sheila always had a smile on her face and a kind word to everyone she came in contact with. We had many laughs throughout our years at Brookville High! Rest In Peace my dear friend! My thoughts and prayers to Bob and the family!

My deepest sympathy is extended to Dr Bob Shaffer and his family, who were all devoted to and cared dearly for Sheila Shaffer and were there for her throughout her battle with cancer. She was a wife and mother who loved her husband, family and grandchildren beyond measure and loved her little schnauzer, Bella, as well. May her spirit rest in Peace,
Love and Blessings to the family,
