We also remember how fun it was to meet up with Sheila and Kevin for the day while we were in Disneyland last spring. We had such a fun day with them, and they showed us the ropes, got us tickets for things and just enjoyed the day. Thankful now that us, our kids and my parents could have that quality time together. I'll never forget how she came to our sealing years ago and came to see us speak in church about it..little things like that that showed she loved us. We will miss you. -Justin and Trisha
I fist met Sister Roberts when I moved into the ward 5 1/2 years ago. We served on the Relief Society Enrichment Committee together. She was such an inspiration to me - her beauty (both inside and out), fun personality and love for the sisters were all qualities she had that I strived to develop. I loved watching her and Brother Roberts at church. They would always sit close together with their arms around each other and grandkids at their feet. You could tell they were so in love and loved their family so much. She was always so kind to me and smiling in the halls and so stylish. Her smile was beautiful and lit up any room. She was and is an amazing example to me and I can only hope to be half the woman she was. Love to all of you. She will be missed greatly. Love, Laura and Ben Harber
Kevin, Nichole, Kira, Tori & Nate, Your mother always made me feel so welcomed and part of your family - and that's how I've always felt. I have such warm memories of observing how much she loved each of you. She was your biggest fan, your greated advocate, your fearless protector - she was MOM through and through. As we got older, she got more youthful, exuded a great deal of passion, spunk, zeal - she always appeared filled with life, love of family and the Lord.
It's so hard to believe that you've lost your mother and Kevin, your amazing wife - so early and unexpectedly. It is easy to "know" in our heads that she is at peace, her sould can rest and that she is in Heaven with God - However, it is hard to at this state find peace in our souls because the ache is too great. It is all I can pray for, is that your hearts will find rest and peace through the strength of our Lord Jesus Christ and that everyday will be a celebration of your mother's fruitful life and as you've said an honor of her legacy.
Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-8
I love you all so dearly, I ache for you deeply and I am praying continuously.
SHELIA: It was her SMILE, Her VOICE, Her ENGERY and Her LOVE for her family that made Shelia who she was. I came to know Shelia 6 yrs ago through my work, and looked forward to my continuing time with her with much happiness. We would talk endlessly about our children and grandchildren and she would help me with my crocheting ( I will never be as good as you). I can hardly believe that this has come to a end, I'm still processing. We were just together on last Saturday, I still hear your giggle, you told me all about your family trip to Disneyland and what fun you all had. I will forever miss you my friend and remember our good times and our laughter and hold you in my heart. May the LORD hold you close and may you and your family find peace at this time.
Kevin, Nichole, Kira, Nate & Tori, We have so many great memories with your family. We are all still shock and are so heartbroken for all of you. We all felt so loved by Sheila, she was always a good listener and very loving, especially to our kids. Actually, all of you were so good to our kids when your mom babysat Madison, Parker, and Carley. It was as close to them having a mom with them, when I had to work. We are greatful that we had that time with your family. We love you guys so much and again are so sorry for your loss. Christina, Darrell, Madison, Parker, Carley, and Olivia Rich
I didn't know Sheila for very long, but she was one of the first that made me feel at home in Vegas. She always checked on me whenever she saw me to make sure I was doing okay. She would give me advice and tell me things she did when she moved to Vegas. I loved her smile. You knew whenever you were around her that she had so much love for her family and that she was so proud of them. It seems like whenever we needed help with a move or picking Ben up from the airport her and Kevin were the first to volunteer. She had a love for fast cars like I do. She would always tell me of her racing stories. She will be deeply missed by so many people. I may have only known her for a year and a half but she blessed my life in that short time. Nicki Brough
Wow what a darling blog I am so glad you guys have these beautiful current family photos together. What a tragic loss for you and us all your mom was an awesome lady! I have many memories growing up of your mom I always referred to her as my "cute aunt that lives in Vegas" since there are so many aunts nobody ever knows which one of my moms sisters I am referring to :).
I remember her & my mom being "Razzle Dazzle" dance moms when we were little girls and taking many photos of us in front of grandma & grandpa's fireplace & spending all that time on poofing out our hair. I remember all the cute craft things she would make for the boutiques the sisters would have in grandma's basement. I remember having sleepovers at your house & Spaghetti O's & always thinking it was so cool that your mom knew how to sew and would sew matching clothes & jammies for you and Kira. I remember her gorgeous aphgans she crocheted and the beautiful quilt she had made for my wedding with our wedding date embroidered on it. I remember how dang organized she was and what a great job she did on Coli's wedding that I was in & we came down & helped with the favors for. I remember taking a few girls trips with my mom & spending time with her & Coli on the strip standing in the sunroof of my mom's Lincoln Continental waving like supermodels :) I also remember going to Lake Mead with you guys when my mom & I came down for a visit.
As I got older I remember her coming to my house & telling me what a great job I was doing as a young mother with my kids which meant a ton. I also as an adult had many conversations via email where she helped me through some problems my mom & I were having and it was so nice to have her to talk to about it. I have loved seeing your family pictures of you all on trips what a fantastic grandma she was not many grandparents would take their entire family to Disneyland for Halloween and dress up right along with them!!! What a tragic loss of a beautiful lady so, so, very sorry you guys I love you all!!! Big hugs xoxo
Love, Darc
Ps... Another childhood memory (funny one) I remember your mom being the "guarder" of the sliding glass door at our santa parties at grandma's and always thinking as a little girl Dang!!! if I could just get past Aunt Sheila I could see if this Santa guy is real & what he drove here in!!! :)
I remember when Kevin and Sheila were first in our ward. We had a newlywed fireside where the youth were able to ask questions to married couples. I couldn't believe how well they knew each other! For some reason I will never forget when they asked Sheila what was something Kevin did that annoyed her and she said, "when he orders at a drive through and only rolls his window down half way." I thought it was so funny. I have enjoyed watching her in the halls at church with her grandkids. She is so stylish and brilliant. She has an amazing testimony that she loved to share. I will cherish the blankets she has made for our babies and all the times she invited us to her home to let our children swim! She was such a wonderful Grandmother, Mother, Wife and Friend. She will be missed...but never forgotten! We Love You! The Luke Family
I always looked forward to seeing Sheila's beautiful smile every Sunday. I admired what a fabulous Wife, Mother, and Grandmother she was. She was always so loving with her sweet grandchildren. She was so loved by everyone who she came in contact with. We will always remember her sweet spirit!! Her time on earth was short, but she impacted the lives of many for ever! We Love You! Mike and Megan Johnson
When I first moved into the Silverstone ward Sheila caught my eye right off the bat and I thought, I want to be her when I grow up :-) I remember when one of my friends moved into our ward the first sunday she was there she came up to me and said, I think I just found you when you are older! She was referring to Sheila and I took that as the biggest compliment! (Although I think she was making the comparison because Sheila and I had on the same dress that day haha) If I could turn out even a little like her I would be thrilled.
I loved her style, her smile, and the way her and Kevin would interact. She was always so sweet to me and made me feel welcome. I always knew I could talk to her, or sit by her in relief society and we would have a million things to chat about, from beauty stuff to her grandkids. She had such a strong love for her girls. She would just light up talking about her family. I have loved getting to know all the Roberts girls, and you all have inherited her warm smile and kind heart. I will miss seeing her so much. I am so glad I got the chance to know such an amazing woman!
Mom I have a million memories about you and I am replaying them all in my mind. I will cherish them forever and never let them go. I don't think anyone will ever think I am as funny as you did. I can still hear your giggle and see your wonderful smile.
"I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, As long as I'm living my Mommy you'll be"
You have always been my biggest fan. Love you mom!!!!!
Six months have come and gone. It seems like it has been forever since I last saw you but on the other hand the picture of you in my mind is so vivid. I remember you being at our home 2 nights before you passed away, helping us hang curtains. You were always there to lend a helping hand. You laughed a lot that night. I loved when you would get laughing so hard that you couldn't even talk. I miss you so much that I physically hurt at times. I never know when the pain is going to come on so strong. I can't ever predict it. So many different things remind me of you or give me a flashback of a special memory we shared. I love you so deeply. I miss your smile, your friendship and your love. I can't wait to the day that we will be reunited again.
Its been over 2 years since you passed away. I miss you every day. I love you so much and still feel you in my life. I miss talking to you. I loved being able to share anything with you. You always made me feel so important and valued. I wish I could see in myself the potential you saw in me. My heart aches each day that I don't get to see you. I am up late tonight doing homework trying to finish out the semester. I wish I could call and talk to you, and talk about anything. I don't really know what I am trying to say here but I just wanted to feel you closer. Love you!
Rest in peace she-she. we love you and you will live forever in the hearts of those who held you dear.
