Today, we honor the best partner in government I could ever dream of.

As Sheila took her oath of office as Lieutenant Governor, she said, โ€œWe make history not in the moment, but in what we do with it.โ€

And she did just that. Time and time again.

Lt. Governor Sheila Oliver was a friend to many and an incredible role model for women, including myself.

Her memory and impact will live on through those she mentored, like @ASWTimberlake, Tai Cooper, and Shante Palmer.
