Sheila was a ray of sunshine. When she came into the office she always made time to come see me. She could lift my spirits with just her smile. Effortless and easy was how she approached things because she always had a positive attitude. I enjoyed working with her and talking to her about anything and everything. She has left hearts in my thoughts and flowering my mind. I will always cherish our time together. She will be missed. I pray for her family. She was taken too early.

I worked with Shelia for years and she was always optimistic. If there was any problem she'd say 'We'll figure it out." We already miss her greatly.

I always looked forward to meetings with Shelia. Her charisma was always overflowing! She would turn on her camera and say "You know I don't turn on this camera for anybody else". Even when she was getting on to me about something I needed to do sooner than later, I always left feeling better about it. I'll miss you terribly.

Offering my heartfelt condolences to Sheila's family and friends. I had the pleasure of getting to know Sheila at Acxiom working on the same account for several years. I can honestly say I have never met anyone in my lifetime that radiated happiness and joy like her. There wasn't a single time I saw her when she didn't have a beautiful smile on her beautiful face. She exuded sunshine and positivity which was contagious. Sending prayers for comfort and peace to all.

Our hearts share your grief during this hour. In such times we have to lean even harder on the Lord. The pain of a parent having to face such a task as departing from their children is indescribable but God’s grace is always able to meet us in that dark place and slowly coax us back to the joy of morning.
