I met Sheila just a few years ago and my life has been that much richer because of her. She was the sweetest, most genuinely loving and caring person that I have ever met. She was truly a wonderful friend and I will miss her forever. I hope you are reunited with your husband, daughter and Daisy and have found peace which you so richly deserve.
My parents live at Rosewood and that is where l met one the sweetest ladies l have ever met. I remember the day she came Rosewood to see what it had to offer. I was sitting by the window with parents and asked if she would like to sit with us. She liked what she saw and then moved to Rosewood. May you stay in the hearts of the people who will miss you very much.
Oh Sheila.. my girl… thank you for our friendship… short but you made it so sweet! I adored you. Loved your licence plate… whatever.. exactly… rest in peace darling. Thank you for loving my momma?❤️?
