Sheila Khalili, 27-year-old Olivet Nazarene University nursing student, disappeared Friday, May 5, 2017. She had checked out of the residence hall and left campus for the summer.
On the morning of Thursday, May 11, the University learned from the family and local authorities that Sheila’s car was found just north of Bourbonnais and that Sheila was in the car, having passed away.

We grieve the loss of such a bright young student whose warm heart and passion for serving others was so evident in her life. We are continuing to pray for her family and friends.
