    So sorry to hear about Sheila; we send our condolences to her family. What a comfort to know she is with the Lord! She was our classmate at Tate High School, class of 1969 but we lost touch with her through the years. She was always so kind and such a sweet person. Know she will be missed. Sincerely, Sheila and Phil Brown
