RAFA PAYS TRIBUTE TO SHEILA WALSH
Steve Hunter 02 January 2008
Rafa Benitez today paid tribute to his secretary Sheila Walsh, describing her as "a remarkable lady" after she lost her brave battle with illness on Monday night.
Sheila will be sorely missed by everyone who had the honour of working with her.

Said the Liverpool manager: "I was saddened to hear the news of the death of our friend and colleague Sheila Walsh yesterday evening.

"Sheila worked as a Secretary to seven different managers at Liverpool Football Club during her 26 years with us. I was privileged to work with her during these last four years.

"During my time as the manager here I found Sheila to be professional, committed, warm, friendly and above all courageous in the face of her suffering.

"On behalf of all the players, coaching staff and staff at Melwood and all her friends around the club I want to extend my deepest sympathies to Sheila's loved ones.

"I am sure I can also speak for many former players and former managers to say she was a remarkable lady who was very much appreciated and who will be sorely missed.

"All our thoughts are with her family at this sad time."

Everyone at Liverpool Football Club and Liverpoolfc.tv would like to pass on their condolences to the family of Sheila Walsh.

Sheila will be fondly remembered for awarding Garcia's goal against Chelsea.

"My secretary Shelia said it was over the line, and she is a very honest person. So that is good enough for me," said Rafa.

RIP Sheila. YNWA

Sheila sounds like she was one very dedicated lady who gave her best to our club. I'm sure her loyalty will not be forgotten.

My condolences to her family. She was a brave lady and I'm sure you are very proud of her.
