My deepest sympathy to Sheila's loved ones in her passing. I spent many years in the Nelson Girl Guides as a leader and would often meet up with Sheila at events. She was a wonderful lady and was so dedicated to Guiding for so many years. It was always great to catch up for a chat with her. Rest easy my friend.
