We know we have done well when we leave this world better than we found it. Shiela did just that and I am thankful to have known her. The sound of her laughter rings in my ears as I write this message to the family and friends she left behind. May God bless and comfort you during this difficult time. You will be in my prayers.

My Dear Miss Sheila,
I will miss you this Christmas. It was with excitement and much laughter, that Paul and I, your sister Carmelita and sometime another person rode around Los Angeles enjoying the Christmas lights. The love you had for her shone each time you visited and especially when it was time for you to return home. The love between siblings was expressed with the wild loud laughs especially reminiscing of the others. You had an infectious laugh. You extended kindness to me for being my Nurse Carmelita Pinks’ friend. Had no inclination that you would follow her only 7 months later. I will miss you both for Christmas, however, we must keep the tradition going and find two people to see our georgeous Christmas lights in Los Angeles. Hoping they will be as much fun as you two were. I thank you for your presence and showing me what true sisters love is, until we meet again.

Dear Aunt Sheila,
Your passing is so sudden, just a few short months after your sister Carmelita our aunt and mother left us. I just can not imagine that I won’t hear your joyous laughter and see your ever smiling face again. I member many of your visits to us in Los Angeles, you and your big sister would lay in your beds just chatting and laughing into the wee hours of the night. I never imagined that you would be joining her so soon.
Rest in peace dear Aunt Sheila and give Aunt Cam a big hug from me, Eugene and Herman. I know you will be with her.

My condolences to Sheila’s family, especially her loving daughter and son. Be comforted by the words of God to his people, “For we walk by faith, not by sight.We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord” Sheila is somewhere around the throne of God with her effervescent spirit, telling jokes and making all the saints doubling over in laughter. What a woman, made in God’s image, Loving, strong, independent and generous. We are going to miss this spirit for a while, but I know I am going to see her again in that mansion that King Jesus said he is going to prepare for us. Family and friends rest assure in God’s promise. I am praying for all of us that our steps be ordered in his words.

To Pat, Colin and the rest of the family let me express my deepest condolences. Don’t know when I’ll recover from this shock that Sheila is no longer with us because I expect to either go visit her at the Rehab Center or drive down to her house to visit her. She was such a fun person, great laughs, great stories always about her grandchildren whom she loved so well, life in Belize or life in NY.
Rest well Sheila, you are greatly missed by me and the Church family.

Aunt Sheila,
We all remember you for many things, but what stands out the most for me is your laugh. Your laugh, to me, says everything about you. It tells of your warmth, generosity, and love of family but most of all who you are. When I hear that laugh I know that we need to get ready for something special.
All that you have done for your children, your grand & great grandchildren is special, and Aunt Sheila, you have not only opened your door to me, but most importantly your heart. Every time we spoke you referred to me as ”your favorite nephew” with that warmth and laugh….Thank you!
Auntie, I miss you for all the fun times and conversations we had, but most of all that laugh.

Hey Moom,
A variation of Mom. There was truly no one like Moom. She was always happy and full of laughter. We shared some of the funniest laughs you can imagine. We traveled to Puerto Rico and Hawaii together many years ago and had a ball. Except for a tour of the Big Island we took with an ex-Vietnam pilot who must have had a flash back of the war and was flying CRAZY. Moom got sick, but was a total trooper. I was so happy when she retired because no one deserved it more than her. I will cherish her love and friendship FOREVER. Love always, Moom!!

Ms Shelia,
You were my neighbor in BELIZE,As as child I used to admire the way you were with your children,they were alway put together and playing with each other in the yard, you could have seen the love they all have for each other . Then you migrate to USA New York as to where your children followed you later.. Shelia you were such a kind giving person, others took it for granted. Even though you knew it,it didn’t matter for your heart tell you sharing is caring. You had such profound laughter that it became contagious…Talk about independence that was Shelia’s name ,you were a fair less traveler even though you were up in age.. as time went on and you got I’ll that independence in you made your determination to go home from the facility. Jesus said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. . You’re God’s child now in eternal life .. For after death is eternal life with our Heavenly Father. Farewell Shelia.

Aunty Sheila. I was just getting myself organised to write to you. I am sorry it wasn’t a bit sooner that I did. You were a lovely kind sweet Aunt with the brightest of smiles. You had about you such warmth and wisdom. I am very glad we’re able to meet up the times were able to, though having to live so far a part, me living in Bristol, England. I am thankful for your visits to us and the hospitality you offered me when I came to stay America. I very much appreciated the tour you asked Colin to take me on, around and about, to places and people while I was there with you. I loved that. I think that made me feel I’d properly visited. You were such a strong spirit , your family were very lucky to have you and I can’t believe you can have gone very far from them. God Bless. Yasmin xxx

Sheils,
You were always like a second mother to me. I will treasure the many fund memories of my time living with you in Jamaica, Queens, always with a big smile and a big heart to go along with it. You were always so kind and generous to a fault, but that was who you were, always lending a hand to those in need. I am so happy you were in my life growing up. I am still in shock over your death, it hasn’t sunk in yet, it will take time.
Today you’re not where you were, but you will always be in my heart A beautiful soul, full of love.
You are at Peace now Sheils, go be with your mom, dad, sister and brothers. I will really miss you.
Thanks for your love and kindness Sheils,

I remember you when I was a small boy of five or six years old and the thing I remember was your smile. As a teen many years later in LA at your sister’s house, it was your unmistakable laugh. As a young man it was your grace and and again your smiling face. As seasoned man I remember your joy and gentle hand. As a father of grown children of my own I remember your nurturing ways and now I remember your recent smile and that is the way that you will remain forever in my mind.
Rest in love Aunt Sheila

May your beautiful soul Rest In Peace. I LOVE YOU Ms Sheila.

Since the first day I met you Sheila I knew I had a friend for life. Every time I would see you it was just like I was family. Thank you so much for the kindness that you showed me and the times that we spent that was so lovely. Shoping, eating at the restaurant or just sitting at home talkin were very special times. Although I would love to cry I won’t because I know to be absent from the body is to be home with the Lord. Miss
Asking Pat about you. Love.

Some people live their entire lives never experiencing the privilege of being in the presence of a lady. Fortunately, I was blessed to not only be in the presence of one, but to call her my family. Cousin Sheila, YOU changed my life! You did it with your beautiful smile, your gentle touch, your experiential wisdom, your grace that followed you and blessed others wherever you went. I thank God for blessing me with you as my cousin. I will miss you more than my words can ever express, but I will do my very best to make you and my grandfather Ivan Percivell Gillette proud every time you watch me from Heaven. I love you so much Cousin Shields, and I thank you so much for loving me just the way I am. Hats off to a TRUE LADY, my Beautiful Cousin, Ms. Sheila Pinks. If God would grant me one wish, I would ask Him to please, give me my cousin Sheila back, the world is just not the same without her. I love you so much Cousin Sheila, so very much!
LOVE, Paullette Diaz- Reed.

Momma Pinks as I called her was a second mother to me. We were co workers as well as good friends who took a few vacations together. She knew the meaning of living life and taught me what a susu is which I’ve continued to date from 20 years ago. She was a kind, considerate and vivacious person. Her homegoing was on my birthday and even though I will miss her dearly, I will always remember her in my heart fondly on that day. God bless Sheila and her family. You are both in my prays.

Grandma,
I can still remember the times we would take vacations together and people would ask if I was your son because you looked too young to be my grandmother.
We would go to all the Caribbean Islands and enjoy the water and sun. I was your travel buddy exploring the islands and all of their cultures. Because of you, I have an open mind to trying new things, to not be afraid to take chance, and to always look at the Silver Lining when things don’t go as planned.
It’s still hard to believe you’re not here with us anymore but the Silver Lining in all of this is that you are in Heaven and part of you will always be with us.
I will miss those sayings…”Ricky, you are my only grandson”.
I Love you Gram

My Dear Sis,
I know the kindness you have shown to all you came in contact with, you bent over backwards to help, not only your close friends, but anyone with a problem that you could possibly solve.
Although we have been so many states away from each other, we kept in touch by phone anď made much of the few minutes we would converse.
I will miss those treasured moments, especially because of the sudden way you left us. A few days prior you were doing so well and this complete about turn really hit like a lightning bolt.
Anyway, my big sis, leaving us just six months after our other big sis, I know you are in a better place with no more pain or problems, and am sure you will be up there with her looking down on us and making up for lost time.
Your loving brother,
Win

Mommy thank you for being my mom. You were such a loving in your own way, kind, jovial, fiercely independent & giving person. You lived your life how you wanted & was happy. I saw changes in you these past few years which concerned me. But you kept on going, living your independent life. God put me here to take care of you these past few months & we grew even more closer. I got on your nerves you got on my nerves, but at the end of the day it was all LOVE. I love & miss you so much mommy but I know you are in Heaven waiting for all of us & feeling no more pain, frustration, depression, anger & helplessness & filling everyone in on your softball championship years, ( : I know you found those feathers you kept asking me about! Each day I pray for God’s strength & peace & I receive them & apply them & I am able to go forward during the day. You always told me you know I am close to God so you didn’t worry about me. Thanks again mommy, hugs & kisses!
