Sheila was raised in Kings Mountain and graduated Kings Mountain High School Class of ‘66. She worked several retail jobs in and around her community, most recently for Lowe’s Home Improvement in Gaffney, SC.
Sheila loved traveling and kept a camper in her happy place, Maggie Valley, where she spent her summers. She made lots of friends up in the mountains, and no matter your location, if you were Sheila’s friend, you were a friend for life. Sheila often spoke with and spent time with her friends, much as she did with her kin. She was very family-oriented, keeping up with both the Brown and Graham sprawling clans, checking in often even with her extended family members.
