Sheila was born November 3, 1941 in West Palm Beach, Florida to parents David and Juanita Ussery. She graduated from West Palm Beach High school and went on to Mississippi State. After graduation from college, she went on to teach gifted children, but she wanted to explore the world, so she became an entrepreneur and businesswoman who discovered the love of travel. She traveled everywhere from Alaska to Japan & China, to Mexico & Peru and all across Europe.

Sheila was known by many names; Mommie, Mom, Mama Sheila, Nana and Wife. She was kind, thoughtful, and funny. She was giving and loving to her extended family, accepting them as her very own. She embraced life, always trusting in her faith and the love of her family, knowing their love would carry her through anything.

Sheila is now with our Lord, her mother, and father where she feels no more pain and she is finally at peace.
