Re: Sheila has earned her wings
 

Everyone here should know that the priest in the funeral/memorial mass mentioned this group as a major place where Sheila had positive input. And I am told we (you) are family. Nancy was there Sunday for visitation (I think a 6 hour trip) and Donna and I today for the mass and the meal afterwards. Those of Sheila's family we talked to knew of this group. So please know you are cherished (considered as family) ...and that her contribution to us is understood. Melanie

Re: Sheila has earned her wings
 

Thank you Nancy, Melanie and Donna for your presence while we mourned Sheila's passing/celebrated her life. I was truly humbled and honored to meet you special gals. Myself and the rest of the family appreciated you sharing what Mom meant to you and how she touched your lives. Mom wanted to be remembered for how much she helped others even through this terrible disease.

Your mum has certainly got her wish. There are just so many that she has helped all over the world. What a legacy to leave.

Dear Jen -
Thanks so much for sharing those photos. I also took a few moments to listen that that AWESOME video.
Seeing the urn drove home the realization to me that Sheila will only be here in spirit. I will miss you so much, dear friend.

Re: Sheila has earned her wings
 

Steph I know Mom touch the lives and became "family" to countless on this site from all over the world who could not be there so I figured taking these pictures and sharing them with her Her2 family would be welcomed. Sheila loved you guys as much as you loved her.

Re: Sheila has earned her wings
 

Jen, Thanks for posting these pictures and the Somewhere Over the Rainbow video - I know your mother is def. over the rainbow now, at peace, no longer suffering.

Thanks Nancy. All of you gals are really special not only to my Mom but to me and all of Sheila's family. It has been an honor to share my Mom with you.

Re: Sheila has earned her wings
 

Hi Jen, I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. She was a formidable person in very good way. I believe she is in a better place and free from pain. She will be missed and absolutely remembered.

Re: Sheila has earned her wings

Re: Sheila has earned her wings
 

I was checking the board as I always do when there's doubt or ignorance on my part on a subject matter

And I see this message. My heart just shrunk and sadness in my head and tears in my eyes

Your mom had always a positive attitude even it was bad news. She answered a couple of my threads

I miss her . I offer my condolescens to all of you. She was a fighter, should be proud of that.

Pardon me but damn i hate this decease!


Love to you. Peace in 2013 as you recover from lour loss

Jenn I'm late coming in here but thank you for posting the pics, it was sad but also helped me get some closure, I was so fond of your Mom and think she felt the same and we chatted often about my life here in Ireland. xx I'll miss her too!

Re: Sheila has earned her wings
 

Jen, you have my heartfelt sympathy. I know this journey was difficult for you, but hold all your fond memories close to your heart and cherish them forever. Sheila was very special to all of us too. Her previous signature had an expression about dancing (I don't know why it just escaped my mind just now). I know she is not suffering and is dancing in peaceful paradise somewhere over the rainbow. I pray for her soul and her memory. And acts of Kindness in Sheila's Honor will be done---what a wonderful idea. Bless you Jen. Hugs, Joanne S

Re: Sheila has earned her wings
 

Jen, let me first extend my condolences to you and the entire family and say how sorry I am for your loss. I will never forget how kind, thoughtful and caring your mother was. She was one of the first to reach out to me when I first joined the amazing Her2 Support Forum. We lunched together and shared our stories both about cancer as well as about our families. As you know helping others and family were most important to her and no matter what she was dealing with, she always had the time to help others. Sheila was a true inspiration to all and while she will be missed terribly, I am happy she is at peace and not suffering. I am sure she has joined the other Her2 angels and will be watching over all. So sorry this is so delayed, I don't check in as regularly as I should, but I did notice the silence that existed from your mom.
