Shelia loved to travel! She had visited 49 states, some multiple times especially Hawaii. She had also traveled to East and West Germany, Canada, Jamaica, The Bahamas, and Mexico. She traveled by airplanes, car and
ships – she had been on several cruises and loved each one. Hawaii was one of her favorite places along with the Grand Canyon-she said it was the most beautiful place to see in person. The only state she had not visited was Alaska, she had plans to go with her son.
She had a love for all things Elvis and had an entire room dedicated to her memorabilia. As much as she loved Elvis, she had a great love for Rodney McDowell. She had seen him in concert over 40 times. She also enjoyed making jewelry, bowling, and collecting salt/pepper shakers. Shelia had worked for the United States Postal Service for over 25 years. She attended Forty Forks Baptist Church in Bethel Springs.
She will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
