As a co-worker at UF/CALS, I got to know Sheila more as a friend. Sheila was a lovely lady. We both shared stories about our dogs and gardens. My memories of her are only of Joy. A gentle soul. That smile and laugh I will not forget. One of the Lord's precious children. And now He has your soul forever Sheila.
We are so sad to hear of Shelia’s passing. Our hearts and prayers go out to her family and friends. Shelia was a true life-long friend to our brother Blaine and many times, the only person he could go to. We will be forever grateful for her love and friendship. She was like the sister we never had. God bless her soul. Rest in peace sister Shelia

I worked with Sheila off and on for sixteen years. She was a precious person!!! I remember one afternoon she came to my desk and asked me if I wanted to go dumpster diving with her, the hotel across the street had dumped all of their colea's in the dumpster, and she wanted them. We had so many laughs together, once it was about her fish Oscar committing Hari Cari. She had a sweet and wonderful spirit. Gail Hilliard
I am sorry to hear of Shelia's passing. I worked with her for several years at UF. I pray that God gives comfort and peace to her family over the coming days.
The news of Shelia's passing was so shocking. I had just asked another coworker the day after she passed if she had talked to her as I had been unsuccessful in reaching her by facebook messenger. I did not know at that time that she had passed. She was a program assistant in the dean's office when we worked together for several years before she moved onto another department.
I will always remember Shelia as having a heart of gold! She hardly ever had a harsh word for anyone even when she had all rights to do so! She loved life and family and friends and would do all she could to help them or anyone she knew. She took pride in her work and would go the extra mile to get things done and help train those that needed assistance.
The world has lost a special young lady! I want her family to know that she will always be a special memory in my life and will be missed!

I'm so sorry to hear about Shelia's passing. I worked with Shelia during the same time frame as Connie, at Student Financial Aid. We loved her. She was smart, funny, supportive and loved life. She is truly a special person. We will all miss her love and humor.
