SHEILAH
You ignited our lives with joy,
Your halo of curls and flashing eyes.
You inspired us to paint,
play music and create.
You inspired us to communicate.
You inspired us to discover new ideas
and new people to appreciate.
You were not perfect - but always fabulous!
Arousing passion, laughter and energy.
You caused worry - but heaped more love
on top of love, with every resolution.
It is hard now to move on.
We miss your strength.
So we keep you with us,
draw on your courage
Love one another fiercely.
You ignited our lives with joy.
You inspired us.
Time past is always present.
Forever in our hearts, always with us.
Wynn, Teddi, Tom, Megan,
Mark and Victoria
Sheilah was lost to us while serving
Nelson Search and Rescue.
