To Ian, Jimmy and Ben and families,
I was shocked to see that Sheila had passed away. Whilst working at AISM with Sheila and Ian, she always had such a friendly smile and kindness about her, making anyone feel welcome.
I hope your memories help you through the days ahead.

I’m so shocked and cannot believe it. Sheila a beautiful youthful lady..you will be ever so missed. My sincerest condolences to Ian and the boys. My love prayer and warmth to you. A great loss…too young too soon. May you be in peace.

For Ian and your family,
Please accept my deepest condolences. I didn’t know Sheila well, but she was a good colleague, quiet and friendly, even though our paths didn’t really cross much. It’s very sad, she was too young to go.

My sincere condolences to Ian and family. Thinking of you all. 🙏💐

My riding buddy and fellow pom. I was drawn to you as I’m sure everyone one was, as soon as we met. Your zeal for life, extraordinary energy and outgoing nature. Your love for life and adventure, your kindness and cheeky sense of humour. Oh you will be missed by so many.
Rest in peace lovely lady

Sheila was a shining example of living life to the fullest. Even when faced with grief and challenge she somehow focused on the sunny side of life and spread that joy to those around her. I feel lucky to have met her, sharing our mutual love of horses. I will always remember her smiling and cantering off on a big dark horse with whom she was one. I raise a glass of bubbles to you, girlfriend. I’ll miss you.

Remembering a very personable individual who was so full of life, a talented and loved teacher full of enterprising ideas.

Sincerest condolences. Sheila will be greatly missed. Rest in peace.

Ian- we are thinking of you and your family as you mourn the loss and celebrate the life of your beloved Sheila. Her infectious smile and jolly laugh remain such strong memories. Sheila was such a positive force and her bright light will shine eternally within your hearts. Sorry we can’t attend the Service in person. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Marg and Alan Campbell

Our hearts are broken.
You led the fun right from the beginning 49 (!) years ago at University, you took us on adventures and celebrated every moment
We love you Sheila, always will.
We will picnic, bbq, watch sunsets, eat ice cream and drink champagne – and know that you are with us.
With grateful thanks for your friendship and for your life. We are the inheritors of your zest for life, as now you pass the baton on to us all.
With love, tears and cherished memories we send you on this journey.

Lovely Sheila. Can’t find the right words. You showered everyone with love and laughter. Condolences to Ian, Benny and Jimmy.

My dearest Friend Sheila.

I miss you so much though we had many more year’s to meet up and enjoy some bubbles.

I am the better to have you in our lives.

To Ian I will never forget the carriage ride whilst Sheila was on her lesson. You and I sitting I the back.

Jimmy our sons mate. With endless fun and moments us parents had no idea about.

So happy you all came and stayed in our house in Gita bayu. The pool was her happy place.

Only happy memories. Stay strong Ian, Ben and Jimmy.

So very sad to hear of Sheila’s passing. She was a dedicated teacher and a wonderful human being who touched the lives of so many – students, staff and friends. Her happy smile and positive attitude made us all smile too. Sending our sincerest condolences to Ian, the boys and their families. We are sorry we can’t be with you today. Rest in peace, dear Sheila.

Sheils lit up every room she walked into with a big smile and a confusing conversation. We all loved her company and she never took trivial issues too seriously. We will miss her warmth and her laughter, but her memories and funny stories will live on for decades. Our thoughts are with Ian, Jimmy, Benny, Carla, Kate and grandkids.
Love Brett and Sal

What a loss for Sheila’s family and friends. I have so many memories of this lovely, lovely woman and times I was fortunate enough to share with her in Lennox, at Trinity Lismore, KL, New Zealand. So many ‘champagne ‘ moments! We loved to share a bubbly, but Sheila was also a champagne personality…always so joyous to be around..
So missed….Susanne
