Sister of Betty Lanthier and Sharlene Carpino (predeceased).
Loving aunt to Judy Courtenay, Laurie Cunningham, Tina Dobransky, Renée Lanthier, Tonya Paranuik, Justin Lamondin (Shay) and Summer Lamondin.

Mom, nana, sister, auntie, wife, friend…Sheila was all things to everybody, and we are all better people for having had her in our lives.
Mom always took comfort in knowing her Grandson Jack was near when a cardinal would appear, now we all can take comfort in knowing that she is still close by keeping an eye on us when we see a beautiful red cardinal.
Cremation has taken place. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Sheila’s memory to the Ontario SPCA Orillia Animal Centre.
Arrangements entrusted to the Doolittle Chapel of Carson Funeral Home, 54 Coldwater St. E., Orillia (705) 326-3595.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Sheila Anne Goss nee Townes 2021..
