Final Journey
Sheila A. Villarreal
( May 16, 1960 - January 4, 2024 )
Sheila Ann(Saboo) Villarreal age 63 of
Cedar Springs as of Thursday January
4, 2024 is Walking On. She spent her
last weeks at home surrounded by the
family and friends whom she loved the
most.
Sheila was born on May 16, 1960 in
Grand Rapids, Mi the daughter of
Clifford Sr and Margaret(Neyome) Saboo. Sheila was the fourth in line of
six children born to them. She was given the nickname "peanut" due to
her small stature.
The quote "Though She Be But Small, She Is Fierce" fit Sheila's
personality perfectly. She was a fiesty, strong willed woman. She
expressed herself, sometimes through tears, honestly and
unapologetically. She loved with the same fierceness. Unconditionally
giving those she loved her time, work, loyalty, compassion and attention,
whenever they were in need. Sheila's pride and joy were her two children
and three granddaughters. Nothing brought her more happiness than
spending time being a Grandma to her three girls. She was very much
looking forward to meeting her fourth grandchild, due this summer.
Sheila had a special love for her dogs. Over the years she and John
usually had two dogs at a time. She didn't want one to be lonely, so made
sure they had a partner.
Sheila married the love of her life, John Villarreal, on March 5th 1994.
They laughed, danced, loved, raised a family, supported and remained
each others best friend for the last 29 years.
Surviving are her husband John; children, Brandon and Ann Foley,
Maggie and Trever Ash; granddaughters, Grace and Elizabeth Foley,
Ellyana Ash and #4 on the way; siblings, Terri Kay and Wes Cummings,
Sam and Sarah Saboo, Marie Saboo and Carl Rogers, Annie and Bill
Rogers, Scott and Kim Saboo; special cousin Louanna Bruner; many
nieces and nephews, who she individually each had a special relationship
with; and her extended family of brothers and sisters-in-law and their
families. She was preceded in death by her parents. A Celebration of Life
will be held on Monday January 15th from 1:00-4:00 at the Cedar
Springs American Legion, lunch will be served at 1 :30. Wear something
green, Sheila's favorite color, if you will be attending. A private family
