Sheila most recently worked for Walgreens in Florida.

She was an active member of the Rise Up Mission Outreach church in Jacksonville. She enjoyed watching baseball and basketball, volunteering on church missions.
Along with working with Rise Up Mission Outreach, Sheila often took under her care elderly and in-need customers she would meet while working at Walgreens.
