Sheila was a social butterfly with a contagious smile. She always could bring laughter to a gathering and she would made up nicknames like Punkin Unkin, Bink Winker, Stranker Wanker and Pimp Juice.

She was so grateful, carefree, and loving to everyone, once she got to know you. Sheila adored taking the time to get ready, by dressing up in style and doing her makeup and nails. Sheila was a talented cake decorator and worked in the bakery at Kroger for 26 year. She was a bright presence in people’s lives and will always be remembered and be missed deeply.
