Sheila has been a hospice volunteer since 1997 and also recruited her two oldest children to experience the gift of giving. "It's a beautiful experience to hold the hands of a complete stranger, with hope in providing comfort through emotion, touch or prayer, before making their final journey. Being a hospice volunteer has truly helped me appreciate LIFE." Her favorite interests are capturing memories though photography and writing self-help books geared for both children and adults.
