I'm saddened to hear about the loss of Sheila. She was a long-time, garage sale customer of mine. I always enjoyed her stopping by with her bright smile and wonderful personality! I was happy to see and talk with Sheila in June at her great nephew's graduation party. What a fun, lovely lady! My deepest condolences to the Borovich family.
