Condolence: To all the family of Sheila,

She showed such immediate concern and friendship to all that came in contact with her. In my case, it was appreciated and even was an example for me and others in how we can all treat people.

Please accept condolences on behalf of myself and my colleagues at Vedco, Inc., Sheila was one of a kind and will be dearly missed.

Rest in peace, Sheila, Miss you already.

Condolence: My deepest condolences to Sheila's family and friends. I grew up in Stow and went to school with Rick. I only met Sheila a few years ago, but in that brief moment felt her warmth. I will always remember her beautiful smile. Rest in peace Sheila.

Condolence: My dear ‘Miss Sheila’!
You were such a bright ball of sunshine - taken from us way too soon. From what I have read here, you treated everyone who came in contact with you from day to day with your sweet, positive attitude. You made us all feel special and left smiles on our faces at the end of our conversations with you. I can still hear your laughter! I will miss our little talks when I would call into your work to place orders. The love for your family and friends would always come shining through during these calls. Thank you for taking such good care of us ... and ‘thank you for being my friend’! Miss you so much. My condolences to all.

Condolence: My sympathies to all of Sheila's family...related or not. Sheila was hysterically funny, full of love, laughter and song..always. The void she leaves will never be filled. I've worked side by side with Sheila for 15 years..it will never be the same without her. Rest well my friend..until we meet again someday...you have my heart...

Condolence: My sympathies to Sheila's family. Sheila was a big and beautiful personality. She inspired others to be positive and better. For years we would make each other laugh and the people around us. Her laughter was infectious and I could always hear her smile through the phone. She will be missed greatly. I'm sure anyone that met Sheila is better because of it. I know I am. And I will remember her forever as a true friend who will continue to inspire me.

Condolence: My sympathies to the family of Sheila. As children, we would all go camping. Great memories with the Dowen family and my parents, Marjorie and Floyd and my sister Faith.

Condolence: In Memory of Sheila

Our lives go on without you
But nothing is the same
We have to hide our heartache
When someone speaks your name
Sad are the hearts that loved you
Silent are the tears that fall
Living without you is the hardest part of all

Condolence: I am so sorry for your loss. I have fond memories of camping and family parties and she was so much a part of it.

Condolence: Our family is so sad over the loss of our beloved Sheila (or She She as she was also known as ) Her love and compassion and her electric personality will be missed sorely. The world has lost a beautiful lady. She will want everyone she knows and loves to continue on and to play back all the memories that she gave us for 56 years . She She referred to me as one of her best friends and I could not have been more honored as her older brother. Enjoy the new peaceful and pain free journey and we will meet again . Love you so much ! Ricky

Condolence: My heart is so heavy, and my deepest, deepest sympathy to Sheila's family for their loss of such a wonderful person. I work at U of Buffalo, and worked w/Sheila for many years, having gone through some cancer a short time apart, and she was the most wonderful person to work with, and even as we exchanged emails and cell phone call and text, she was always so positive, upbeat, encouraging, and a true example of a guiding light!!! May God bless you all and give you all strength and peace!!!
