I went to church at Full Gospel Tabernacle. Brother Larry and Sister Sheila was my Paster and First Lady. Sister Sheila was one of the most kind hearted,sweetest,and loving person I knew. Sister Sheila was totally sold out and love the Lord with all her heart. I know that she is walking on streets of gold, rejoicing in the arm of our Savior Jesus Christ. Sister Sheila will be missed. Love you Sister Sheila and will see you again one day.
