I can't believe it's almost been a year. Scott's first birthday without his mom is just around the corner. My thoughts and prayers will be with you Scott on your birthday, your mom's birthday and the first anniversary of her death. She was blessed for having you as a son. Always remember that she is not gone, but lives in you.

Thanks for being so loving to Elvis in life and so kind to his memory after his passing. Seems you had a rough road in this world but you are now in Heaven and I bet by now you and Elvis have reunited. He probably greeted you there himself with a few bars of "And I Love You So." My prayers are with your family and son as no doubt this will be a tough holiday season. But I 'm sure you will be always with them. Be at peace sweet lady.

I extend my very deepest sympathy to Scott, the Ryan family and the all of Sheila's friends. Sheila was a precious soul, and one of the sweetest and most gentle Ladies I know. She was my friend for several years and I am truly broken hearted that she had to go. However, I know she is in such a better place with her Jesus and Elvis. God bless your precious soul my friend. I love you, Sheila Marie.

To the family of Sheila: I am so sorry to hear about Sheila. May she rest ever so peacefully in the arms of Jesus and may he grant peace to those who mourn her. May all your wonderful memories sustain you in this time of your grief. Know there are many who are thinking and praying for and with you. Sheila was a classmate of my brother-in-law from ELHS in 1971. Sheila was an "Eagle" at Leyden and now continues to soar higher than the clouds. God's blessings to all.

Sincere condolences to Sheila's family and friends. I will always remember her beautiful smile and cheerful, carefree demeanor doing that "teenager" stuff with my sister Nora in Franklin Park, IL. On my wedding day in '73, Sheila graciously volunteered to DO my hair and then partied hearty with us and all our friends. May she rest in peace and wonderful memories comfort her family and friends.

Sheila, I think of your passing every day with tears in my eyes. I still think of you as a 12 yr. old coming over to our house and playing with my sister. Then followed you, my sister Nancy, Diane and your good friends (the group) into high school and saw you all turn into beautiful young ladies. (I m class of 67) I have followed your life, through Nancy, and was so deeply sadden to find out you were ill again. Well, now God has you. I hope you have the rest you now deserve and you can be with Elvis now forever.

Sheila, I'll miss your beautiful face and your sweet smile. You had a sweet spirit and a gentle way that made you such a special lady. People were drawn to you because you made them feel important, and you cared. You knew your life was coming to an end, but you were so courageous in your battle. Through it all, you never lost your faith in the Lord. You knew your home was in heaven, and you professed your love for Jesus. The bible says to be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord. May you rest with the angels, my dear friend. God bless you. ~?~
To Sheila's family, my heart reaches out to yours, with love, with sympathy, and with caring. Thinking of you at this difficult time.
