Thank You
It is with heavy hearts that we bid farewell to a truly remarkable educator, Ms. Sheila Midgette’s unwavering dedication to teaching touched the lives of countless students.
Shelia was more than an educator; she was a source of inspiration, a guiding light, and a friend to many. Her passion for teaching extended beyond the classroom, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know her.
Thank You
The Popwell family send their condolences to the Midgette family. Sheila has been an integral part in our lives. She was my son and daughter’s chemistry teacher, and we have been colleagues since 2002 when she first started at Stockbridge High. We bonded because of our Caribbean roots, and precious memories will always be remembered : from the cookouts at her house to the parties at my house with precious Abby. Sheila loved life, family, and her work family, and I’m honored to be a part of her girl’s group. Her smile would brighten up a room and she always knew what to say to bring comfort. She was an awesome teacher, friend, mother, wife, sister, and family member. This is not a final goodbye, so I say, until we meet again my friend. Dr. Popwell
Thank You
Mrs. Midgette was an amazing teacher, and it was an absolute pleasure to be one of the many students she impacted. Mrs. Midgette taught me both Honors and AP chemistry, and I absolutely loved being in her classes. She was very attentive, caring, and wanted her students to thrive in all aspects. I’ll never forget some fond memories I have of her whilst in AP chemistry. In that class, it was probably only about 5 of us, so we got the opportunity to experience a more initimate classroom setting. While we were studying for the AP chemistry exam, she offered several weekend tutoring sessions, which is something many teachers did not do! She constantly went above and beyond for her students, and I will always be appreciative of that. You will be greatly missed Mrs. Midgette.
To her family, please remain strong during this tough time and know she is hopefully resting peacefully now! She will be forever missed and loved.
Thank You

I am so grateful that we had the opportunity to cross paths during my years at Stockbridge High School. You were one of the best educators I know because you truly cared for the students growth inside and outside of the classroom. I can assure you that there was no other teacher or professor that was able to help me understand and love chemistry as much as you. Your love and passion for your work has made a big impact on so many students lives. I will miss seeing your face light up and that big beautiful smile anytime I came to visit you. May you now take your rest peacefully Queen. I love you !

As an extended member of the family through my beloved wife, Margareth Seide-Benony, I had this unique opportunity to meet this wonderful person, Mrs. Sheila Seide Midgette, one the greatest human being that ever walked the face of this earth. As the matriarch of a family, she was a model to follow. Her commitment to her students was unwavering; her legendary patience, unmatched. Mrs. Midgette, by all accounts, remains the epitome of an ultimate wisdom. This is a life that will never be forgotten. She will forever remain in our hearts and always in our minds.

Thank You Brother
Ms. Midgette was truly one of my favorite teachers in high school. That’s why I’m writing this on December 18, 2025. Her memory lives on. She was an amazing human and teacher. God truly graced her to share love through teaching. I wish I had gotten a chance to tell her how thankful I am for being a light to me in my high school years; but I pray one day we will meet again when His glory comes. I’m truly grateful to have met her and I pray she’s truly at peace and comfort in God’s arms. Love you always, Ms.Midgette. -Akilah
