Notes:

Sheila Ruth Bohlender, age 75, died Sunday, Feb. 4, in Peoria, AZ after a long and debilitating battle with Lewy Body Dementia. She was born in Racine, Wisconsin on April 2, 1942, the daughter of Clarence and Bertha (nee Duwe) Dunn.
She moved in 1958, with her mother, to Phoenix, Arizona, where she graduated from Central High School. In high school she excelled at baton twirling and was a budding violinist, beginning her lifelong love of music.
She was married to William Willis in 1960, who she later divorced, and the couple had four children.
She was a stay-at-home mom but began a career with United Bank in Phoenix in the 1970's.
In 1984, Sheila moved to Flagstaff, Arizona, as a secretary for the dean of Creative Arts at Northern Arizona University.
She met and married Larry Bohlender, a journalism instructor at NAU, in 1985.
The couple moved to California, in 1987 where Sheila became the revenue supervisor for the Orange County Transit Authority, a position which brought her great enjoyment as well as professional pride. Running at the beach and country line dancing were Sheila's relaxation favorites in California.
In 1993, they returned to Glendale, Arizona, where Larry taught in the English department at Glendale Community College. Sheila worked at Reuter Equipment Co. and later at Desert Schools Federal Credit Union. She retired in 2000 when her illness was in its early stages.
