Shelia Jane Collier, born on May 26, 1952, in Finger, Tennessee, passed away peacefully at her home in Memphis, Tennessee, on January 8, 2025, at the age of 72.

Shelia was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Sam Collier; a son, Ross Collier; her parents, Harold and Cora Crowe; her brother, Jesse Crowe; and her sister, Ann Ling.

She was always quick to help those in need.  In the late 1980s, she served as a paramedic for the Memphis Fire Department. Her compassion and commitment to helping others left a lasting impact on those she served during her career.

In addition to her professional accomplishments and family devotion, Shelia found joy in crocheting and other crafts. Her creative spirit brought beauty into the lives of those around her.
