I briefly worked with Sheila about 14 years ago as a NP student wanting to learn more about cardiology and pulmonary hypertension. I shadowed her in clinic and recall her aura, energy and spirit as lively and positive. She was passionate, knowledgeable, jovial, frank and made the visits fun for the patients, families and me as well. I didn't know her well and we have not spoken since back then, but I have never forgotten her and am really saddened to hear of her passing. My sincerest condolences to her family and loved ones. She's definitely an unforgettable one-of-a-kind individual.

I was one of her walkers for Lucy for 6 (I believe) years and I conversed with her many times but only met her in person twice. The first time was after a couple years already visiting and she kept me for at least a half hour talking and she had me cracking up laughing the entire time. She was obviously a very fun lady and I’ll miss Lucy girl and Ms Bostelman ❤️🦮🪽
