I am devastated to hear this sad news. I got to know Sheila as a client several years ago through a mutual friend. I always looked forward to seeing Sheila and loved our chats. I will miss her dearly. Sheila was the salt of the earth, intelligent, super talented and incredibly kind. My heart goes out to Rob, Sharon and her huge circle of friends.

Sheila was such an amazing kind,
funny,generous and supportive friend who loved to eat out!I'm so lucky to have had her in my life.
Nobody can take away my memories of this special lady.

Sheila was a strong, kind, talented woman. She was great as a headteacher with staff and parents. I shall miss our very long lunches. I will miss her in my life and she will always live in my heart and my memory.

Sheila was such a wonderful, kind and caring person. I feel so blessed to have known her and will miss her so much. Thank you Sheila for the laughs, long conversations and a shared love for all things sparkly. My condolences to Rob and her sister Sharon.

I am very sorry to read this very sad news. We have known each other since we were 11years old and though we haven't seen each other very often she has always been in my thoughts. I have very happy memories of us in our teenage years and beyond. She was a bridesmaid at my wedding 48 years ago and even though she lost her dress she was making for the occasion she managed to find the right material and started again. Loved her very much.

I am so sorry to hear this news. A great headteacher who supported me with real humanity when I most needed it.
