Sheila Parshall Death, Obituary – On Thursday, December 15, 2022, Sheila L. Parshall, who had lived in the Samantha Community all her life and was 78 years old when she went away, passed away. The fifteenth of December was the day she passed away. Hillsboro was the location where Sheila was welcomed into the world on November 30th, 1944. When Sheila was still in the womb, both of her parents, Forrest D. Caldwell and Virginia (Temple) Caldwell, had already departed away from their respective illnesses. Paul Edward Parshall, Sheila’s husband, followed in the footsteps of both of Sheila’s parents and both of Sheila’s grandparents by passing away on April 17, 2009. Her parents had already passed away before he was born.
He was the one who would succeed them. Sheila worked for a significant amount of time for the Fairfield Local Schools before deciding to take advantage of their retirement program. In addition, she was a member of the National Association of Active and Retired Federal Employees as well as the Samantha Friends Church. She also held the positions of secretary and treasurer for the Penn School Reunion. Additionally, she was an active participant in the Samantha Friends Church community. Sheila is survived by her son, Patrick Parshall, and his wife, Amanda, of Samantha; her daughter, Pauletta Cole, and her husband, Thomas Cole, of Wilmington; her four grandchildren, Brandon (Marissa) Mann, Erica (Matt) Stapleton, Zander Parshall, and Liberty Parshall; her five great grandchildren, Gabe Mann, Amelia Mann, Wyatt Stapleton, and Abel Staphall, and Jackson Staphall; and her brother, Tom.
