Sheila Marie Rowley O’Neal, 63, passed away on January 6, 2023, in Hospice care. She was born October 27, 1959, in Anaheim, California. Growing up in Riverside, California, she spent happy times at the beach with her cousin Karen, she was a great Tennis Player in High school and loved fishing with her dad. She loved the water and swimming and of course getting her tan on at Corona Del Mar. She worked hard as a teenager mowing lawns to earn her own money. She even saved up enough to buy her own waterbed. She loved her animals, sometimes more than herself. Horses, dogs and even snakes. She loved to facetime with her granddaughters. They made her so happy. Sheila struggled most of her life with alcohol addiction, which eventually took her life. We hope she finds peace in the next and know she was greeted by her family that has passed before her.
She is survived by her children, Colton O’Neal, Sarah O’Neal and Casey O’Neal, her granddaughters Athena and Sariah, her sisters Theresa Baronek, Kristie Erickson and Cheryl Wheelock. She is preceded in death by her parents Thomas and Rebecca Rowley, her sister Deborah and grandparents.
The family would like to thank The Inn Between for their loving and kind Hospice care.
A private memorial service will be held.
