Henry, Ron, Jill and respective families,

We would like to express our heartfelt condolences to all of you for your loss of a beautiful soul. Sheila was a cousin and our good friend. We especially enjoyed sharing stories and socializing with her at local restaurant dinners and family Holiday get togethers.
She was the defacto matriarch of your families and, in the spirit of her parents, Rella and Lester, acted as the glue that cemented all of you into one larger cohesive family unit.
Her magnetic personality and attractive smile will be missed by all.
In Honor of Sheila, we would like to send a Shiva fruit plate and a donation to the charity of her choice.

I so desperately wish I could be with you at the service and shiva. Aunt Sheila was energetic, radiant, and loving. I have so many fond Thanksgiving memories of her and all of you. We will all miss her terribly.

In sorrow,

To me, Great was always a lot more than a prefix. Aunt She was the first adult I can remember who treated me like an individual. She loved me, she encouraged me to get in touch with my Jewish roots, she made INCREDIBLE food. I remember one Thanksgiving when I was a very young teen, I heard her say, "I couldn't give a shit!" I was so surprised to hear such kind, gentle woman say "Sh*t!"- She saw me and said, "Joey, have you never heard me swear? Oh, I love swearing- F*ck is my favorite word!"
She was always so funny, always so happy to see me, always so proud of me. Right before she went into hospice, I got a final opportunity to see her. Folks had told me she was in pretty bad condition but walking into her home I saw the exact same woman I'd always known- bright, loving, proud. I miss her so much and am so grateful to have her as an aunt.
