Sheila Pless

Sheila Pless, 64, passed away on May 22, 2024, at Holston Valley Medical Center in Kingsport. Sheila was a vibrant soul who cherished her family, embraced life's adventures, and found joy in simple pleasures.

Sheila's free-spirited nature and infectious laughter touched the hearts of all who knew her. She loved tending to her plants, taking trips to the beach, and laughing until her stomach hurt. Above all else, Sheila cherished the time spent with her family and those close to her heart.

Though she may have been a bit clumsy and directionally challenged, Sheila had a heart of gold. Her kindness, compassion, and love for others left an indelible mark on the world that won’t soon be forgotten. XOXO

She was preceded in death by her parents, Elmer and Charlene Luster; son, Jason Pless; sister, Connie Franklin; and nephew, Chad Alvis.

Sheila is survived by her husband, John Pless; son, Danny Pless (Casie Martin); grandgirls, Savannah and Megan Pless; brother, Mike Luster (Rhonda); sisters, Gail Hammonds (Danny), and Michelle Trent; nieces, Taylor Blanken and Chastity Alvis; daughter-in-law, Nikki Pless; bonus granddaughter Gracie Grindstaff; and several other special friends.

A graveside service will be held at 3:00 pm on Friday, May 24, 2024 at Sulphur Springs Cemetery with Dr. Ed Clevinger officiating.
