Sheila Pearl Peters, beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away peacefully on Sunday, June 21, 2026, at the age of 75. Born in Waverly, West Virginia, Sheila brought joy and warmth into the lives of her family and community.

A 1969 graduate of Parkersburg High School, Sheila dedicated her life as a homemaker, creating a loving environment for her family. Known for her vibrant spirit and boundless energy, Sheila was always on the go, often lovingly fulfilling her role as the family chauffeur.

Brown (Jeff); cherished sons, Michael J. Peters and Joshua R. Peters (Jessica). Her memory will be forever treasured by her five children, twelve grandchildren, several great-grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews.
