Sheila Lilian Saunders (13 Jul 1942 - 11 Mar 2021)

For my lovely sister, may angels always walk beside you because that's what you were to me. Sleep well, until we meet again.

May you rest in peace and rise in glory.

Our sincere condolences to the whole of the Lawrence family at the loss of Sheila.
Some lovely memories come to mind.
We will never forget Sheila turning up at our Mums bed when she was hospitalised, she brought with her a wonderful smile and a warm and comfortable presence.
May God hold your hand Sheila on your journey. God bless.
Lynda, Bob and all our family...xxx

Mother Sheila is so fondly remembered by all in our family. May her soul continue to rest in peace and may her memory be a blessing 🙏

Sending my sincere condolences to the family of Mother Shelia, whom I shared my study as an ordinant on the Ordained Local Minister Course (OLM) and yes she was a private person. But a dedicated Christian and loved Children. Yes she has gone to her rest with Christ. May Mother Shelia Rest in Peace and Rise in Glory.🙏❤❤

Mother Sheila radiated love and kindness. When I was a deputy warden at St Peter's she always noted when someone came in with needs, or troubles, and would say to me 'they're one of my people, I'll look after them'. I will never forget that. Rest in Peace Sheila, you will be much missed. We will let you go as you ask, and share the love you shared with others as you would wish us too. Thank you xxx

Mthr Sheila we will miss every Sunday and our little chats . My condolences to the family, you are all in my prayers

Mother Sheila was a great priest, friend, and neighbour to so many people over the years here at St Peter's and way beyond. She gave selflessly to God's work in church, parish, St Peter's School, her hospital ministry and the wider community. She never minced her words, and really called a spade a spade! She has held individuals and families at the most difficult times of tragedy and loss, as well as helping people to celebrate God's great joys at special times in life. There have been so many messages of condolence and fond memories of Sheila from the congregation and church family at St Peter's, really showing the impact she had in her ministry. May Sheila rest in perfect peace and rise in glory: a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek. Amen.

Take your rest you deserve it you did your best while you were here sleep on you have left a devote time of service
That we the Charles family will always remember thank you for spreading loving words to our mother in her last hour .

God bless dear Aunt Sheila,
So many fond memories. I will always appreciate being included in family outings when growing up, it meant so much.
Your kindness and comforting words to my Nan Elsie when she was in St Thomas’s will stay in mine and my mums hearts forever too. Love always Elisa x

I was glad to be alongside Sheila as she prepared for ordination and then became a priest. It was always good to work with her. I really appreciated her gift of spotting people with particular needs or people who felt on the edge, and bringing them in. I'm grateful for everything she taught me. Thanks Sheila!

Shelia was a dear friend and a great neighbour and we shall miss her greatly. May she rest in peace and rise in glory.

I have the fondest memories of Sheila from when I worked at InSpire. She was always up for a challenge and laugh and took part in our drama projects. I loved spending time with her and will miss her honesty & kindness. Rest in peace xx
