News like this is always heartbreaking whether you know the person or not! May God bless her family and make them strong!

Jay, thank you so much for spreading the word. This has really been rough on our online family, especially because so many of us have had the chance to meet Sheila. That feeling you had that you could immediately call her a friend is apparently how everyone in her life has felt. Bill said she has always made people so happy and everyone warms up to her instantly. When we met, I knew instantly why Bill is so madly in love with her, even after spending more than 3 decades together. Through this sad loss, our community has done an amazing job in lifting Bill up from within our own thousands of independent cities and communities and I thank you for taking charge in his cause. God bless.

Dru, I did the same thing. I looked in Flickr, in FaceBook, and Twitter. I too missed meeting her in S.F.

Jay, I've been reading Bill's posts on Ag, and following him on Twitter. Was delighted to have crossed paths with him in San Francisco. I did not meet Sheila, as so many did, so have been learning about her through all the posts. This morning, I had the thought to visit Sheila's Twitter account @Pinky379. Her posts are just delightful. Very light and happy. What a special person.

Jay - Thanks for this post, as well as the links to the other posts. Our thoughts are with the Lublin family.

Selfishly I know for me, writing seems to help some, but reading how others feel helps more.

Bill, I wish there was something more I could do to ease your pain than sitting helplessly here across the country with a heavy heart. Please know that you are in my every thought.

I do not personally know Bill, but have followed him as well. My prayers go out to him and his family in these difficult times.

Thank you for the info. I am so sorry to hear she passed. I've not been as intouch with things lately. Thank you for remembering her.
