Sheila was a member of the Williams Lake Square Dancers. She enjoyed exploring and driving down old country roads and wandering through nature. Spending time at the McAdam Campground on Wauklehegan Lake was one of her favourite places to be. Her granddaughter Claire was the light of her life and she enjoyed the times spent with her and her dog Mr. Nibbles. She was known for giving the best hugs ever :)

Stephen Tompkins and Rev. Terry Messer. Music was supplied by Deanna LaKing and Mary Messer. Interment followed at the Rockland Cemetery where a poem was read by Pam Grant.

For those who wish to make a donation in memory of Sheila, the family has suggested the Saint John Regional Hospital Foundation (Oncology Department) or just plant some flowers somewhere ... she would love that.
