Pearce would like to recognize Sheila Bauswell as our January Employee of the Month!
Sheila has been an employee of Pearce for almost 2 years! She is our very early morning Front Desk Attendant.
Sheila retired from her full-time job at the Peoria County Jail and joined Pearce as a part-time job to keep busy, but it has become much more than that. The people and co-workers have become like a 2nd family. Sheila states, “I truly look forward to coming into Pearce each day.”
In her spare time, Sheila loves to read, bake (she is a fantastic baker) and spend time with her family. She also loves taking care of her 6 cats ranging from 3-10 years old (Stormy, Fezzek, Gabby, Guppy, Tabitha and Nora) and 1 dog, Georgia (13 years old)
Sheila’s favorite inspirational thought is, “I’m fine, it’s fine, everything is fine! It has to be because to be unhappy is not a choice”.
Sheila says, “I love working at Pearce because of the people”! She enjoys all of the members, as many of them make her laugh and smile on a daily basis.
Sheila hopes she brings a smile to the early morning crew and that they know she is here to help them in any way she can!
Fun facts about Sheila: she has 7 tattoos and is a huge BTS fan, which is KPop. She is planning a trip to South Korea with her sister, who is also a huge fan!
Three words Sheila says describe her are: kind, funny and giving!
Thank you, Sheila, for choosing to be a part of our Pearce family!
