    So sorry to hear of Sharon’s passing. She was lots of fun and smiled even with the many health problems she endured. I will really miss her at Thanksgiving where we shared lots of laughs and entertained the young folks. Prayers and hugs to the family.

    What a special lady, I had the honor of meeting Sharon and making a new friend. An upbeat attitude, smile and laughter, these are the things she displayed when I came to see her. She was funny, kind and thoughtful. At every visit, she would tell me,I AM READY TO GO TO HEAVEN. My life has been blessed to have met her. GO REST HIGH ON THAT MOUNTAIN!!!!!!
