In her younger years she truly “lived life to the fullest.” As she grew older, she slowed down her lifestyle and she became a woman of simple pleasures. She loved crocheting blankets, scarfs, booties/slippers, hats and so much more for her family. She spent many days watching her favorite TV shows, drawing cartoons and writing stories. She took great pleasure in being able to watch her grandkids grow up and she was proud of what her kids had accomplished. Sheila was funny and a delight to talk to making light of any subject. She was full of stories, jokes, pranks and had a wild imagination. When it came to her friends or family, or anyone who crossed paths with her positively, she would mesmerize people with how well she could always remember everyone’s birthdays, important events and anniversaries. If you made an impact in her life she would never forget your special day. So, we will ALL make sure we never forget her! She will be forever loved and missed, but her spirit will live on. She will be laid to rest at Fort Logan National Cemetery alongside her husband. | Goins, Sheila Kay (I3722)

| 9573 | Slain Hagerstown Man’s Body To Ohio Wife Denied Right to View Corpse of Austin C. Godar, She Admits Killing. Hagerstown, Md., May 28 (AP) – While funeral services were held for her husband, Austin C. Godar, 44, whom she admitted shooting, Mrs. Annabelle Godar, 38, church worker and school secretary, remained in a jail detention room, prohibited from seeing the body. Mrs. Godar asked to see the body at the largely attended rites for the laundry manager yesterday, but authorities denied her request, presumably because she was in a nervous condition and under a physician’s care. Meanwhile, a coroner’s jury viewed the body and adjourned. It will reconvene, probably Friday, for the inquest. A murder warrant has been prepared for service on Mrs. Godar, formerly of Roanoke, Va. Her husband’s body was sent last night to Canton, Ohio, his former home, for further services and burial. Mrs. Godar said in a statement given Clarence Baker, county investigator, that she shot her husband Saturday night after he came home intoxicated and threatened to “break every bone” in her body.
