I saw a relative today and they shared with me of Sheila’s passing. It’s with a heavy heart that I think of her passing. Shelia was always so full of life and I remember the exact spot that I last spoke with her. I haven’t seen her in years ,but I considered her a friend. We went to McCaskey together and I would see her occasionally when we were in our twenties and thirtys. To the Wright’s and extended family ,I’m so sorry for you loss and you will be in my prayers.
