I knew her through her son, who is now my grandson-in-law Brian. She was a cancer survivor for a long time and a brave, inspiring woman. She will be missed.
She was my best friend one of the very best they only come along once in a lifetime. We were through just so much together good times and bad times but we always stood by each other’s side. I know I’ll see her again someday because she asked Jesus to be her savior. I can’t wait for that day I love you Sheila Bailey till I see you over there
So sorry for your loss. My prayers for strength and comfort for you all. Eric so so sorry.
I remember talking to Sheila during Isaac’s birthday party and her smile as she watched her kids. I could feel the love for her family in that smile.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Eric and Debra Simpson
I would like to share one of my memories of Sheila that occurred over the many years she did my hair (1995-2005). My youngest son, Skyler, age 8 at the time, went with me to get eyebrows waxed. Well… my kids loved Sheila & she was the only person that cut their hair for many years, anyway, Skyler had a little bit of unibrow sooo me & Sheila talked him into getting that waxed. He swore afterwards that we were crazy for ever doing that to ourselves & he will NEVER do that again!! We laughed so hard. My thoughts are with Kevin & the kids at this time.
