Sheila McLean Coffman, age 54, passed from this life on December 8, 2020 after her long, hard fight with breast cancer. Sheila was born on January 9, 1966 in Tishomingo, Oklahoma to Billie Hughes McLean and Clara Bell Black. She spent her working years doing many things; hairdressing, working in warehouses but her favorite title was mom or meemaw. Sheila was mom or meemaw to everyone; you couldn’t go to her house without leaving with a sack full of groceries. She always made sure you felt loved and would check up on you constantly just to make sure you didn’t need anything. Sheila enjoyed Hallmark movies, making fudge and taking trips. Life of the party, full of life, never went without a smile even towards her last days; she was a tough, strong woman who loved to dance her way through life. Sheila is preceded in death by her parents, Billie and Clara McLean; 1st husband, Richard Arles; brothers, Billy Michael McLean, Baby McLean; sister, Kathy Taylor; grandparents, Mary Margaret McLean, John Percy McLean, Henry and Viola Black; uncles, Charles Mclean, Bobby McLean, Sunny Sharp; aunt, Darlene Taylor Black.

Funeral Service will be held at 2:00 PM on Sunday, December 13, 2020 at DeArman-Clark Funeral Chapel with Brother Daniel Stevens to officiate. Interment to follow at Ravia Cemetery.
