Ladies and gentlemen,
Today, as we gather here to bid farewell to a truly remarkable woman, Sheila, we find solace in celebrating a life that touched each of us in the most profound ways. It is with utmost humility and a deep sense of inspiration that I stand before you to deliver this eulogy.
Sheila, or Nan, as many affectionately called her, entered my life in the very beginning, cradling me in her loving arms alongside Grandad. During those first precious weeks into the world, it was Nan's warm embrace that made me feel safe and cherished. She nurtured and loved me unconditionally from the very start.

When I would visit Nan, her nurturing spirit extended beyond mere words, for she believed in indulging her loved ones with all their heart desired. Sunday mornings were marked by the tantalizing aroma of the cheese omelette Nan would expertly prepare, a dish that melted in our mouths, filled with love because she knew just how much Tyler and I adored it. And oh, how can we forget the best cheese and potato pie that Nan ever concocted. Its savory allure was unmatched, a testament to her culinary prowess.
But it wasn't just the taste of her cooking that left an imprint on my heart; it was the intimate moments we shared in the simplest of gestures. I still remember sneaking handfuls of humbugs from the bowl that adorned Grandad's kitchen table, with Nan's joyful laughter echoing in the background. Being in her presence filled me with joy and a sense of belonging.
As beautiful as our mornings were, our adventures at car boots were equally enthralling. Nan would take me on endless strolls, meticulously seeking out treasures that she knew would ignite my imagination. Her selfless dedication to filling my world with happiness is something I will always treasure.
One particular Christmas of 2017 will forever be etched in our memories. Nan graced our home with her presence, and our laughter danced through the rooms as we rejoiced in the love that surrounded us. That day, she reminded us that the most precious gift of all was our togetherness.
In every aspect of my life, Nan's unwavering belief in me was an anchor that kept me grounded. She saw potential in me even when I doubted myself, always reminding me of the talent I possessed. With each word of encouragement, she whispered her unwavering support, urging me to pursue my dreams in the beauty industry. And when I spoke of my driving lessons, her excitement was palpable, filling my heart with motivation and purpose.
Oh, how I long for one more voicemail, one more opportunity to hear Nan's loving voice after I missed one of her calls. These cherished moments where we chatted away for hours hold a special place in my heart, and I hold onto them dearly.
Nan's loving heart extended far beyond our conversations and culinary escapades. I remember eagerly tending to her garden, not for any reward, but for the joy it brought me to see her smile. Painting her nails, giving her hand massages, and styling her hair with a bouncy blow dry were acts of love that spoke volumes about the bond we shared. In those intimate moments, we connected on a level that transcended words.
More recently, our conversations revolved around the dreams of a future family, my plans to marry Lewis, and the immense joy Nan felt when she saw him walk through the door or even when his name was mentioned. Her eyes sparkled with delight at the thought of our happiness, her support unwavering.
Sheila, our dear Nan, was a beacon of love, humility, and inspiration. Her legacy lives on in the smallest of gestures and the profound impact she had on our lives. Her unconditional love and unwavering belief in our potential will forever guide us on our journey through life.
As we say our final goodbyes today, let us remember the remarkable and humble soul that Sheila was. May her love continue to resonate within us, guiding us towards lives filled with compassion, selfless acts, and profound inspiration.
Sheila, our dear Nan, may you find eternal peace. You will forever reside in our hearts.
Thank you.
