Our prayers are with you Frank and family. Sheila was such a lovely fun lady to know and always enjoyed times we spent together when we played golf Sunday and Tuesdays mornings.

Our thoughts are with Vince and their family at this time. Sheila was such a wonderful lady and will be missed so much. I remember when her and Vince were our next door neighbors on Northgate Dr. Sheila always had a smile and a wave. Her biggest smile though, was always when her grandkids were around her. Sheila was so proud of all her family and it really showed.
