I send my condolences to her family and friends. I listened to her in my early years up until now, she was my favorite singer of all time. The best voice in my opinion and one of the greatest scat singers ever. Her talent and beautiful music will truly be missed. RIP Ms.Jordan, your legacy lives on in our memories forever.

A brilliant vocalist who sang some of the best scat singing, she will be deeply missed and forever remembered. May she rest in eternal peace with God by her side.

I was saddened to read about Sheila´s passing. I had the great privelege of chatting with her via email a couple of years ago. My connection with her was not about her music, but about her time growing in Summerhill, Pennsylvania, which is where I grew up a couple of generations later.
It was clear - even via email - that she was both a lovely and loving woman.
To her family, friends, and collaborators: please accept my deep condolences as you work to adjust to a world without Sheila´s beautiful personality and voice in it.
