I worked with Sheila in the IT Department at El Paso County. I have very fond memories of our conversations at my desk. She was so creative! I re,ener when she was diagnosed...but I remember more when she announced she was pregnant - what a miracle! She believed - she believed with all her heart. You will be missed by many, Sheila...because of who you were and what you stood for...honor, ethics, and spirit. Rest in peace...and welcome Home...

Archie, Rachel & Shiela's family, I am so sorry for your loss. I did not know Sheila well, but she sure was dealt more than anyone should have to deal with in a lifetime. She is at peace now and in good hands. I hope you can find comfort in that.
