Michael, I will always be grateful to you for sharing the news of Sharon's life and passing. Over two years ago she generously offered her time, spirit and energy to help me support my father, hospitalized in Michigan, during his last stage of life. We never met in person,yet our telephone conversations reflected her committment to the well being of others in need.

You responded to the recent phone message I left for Sharon. I had been thinking of her, wanted to share that my mother was now living with me in JP, and again express my gratitude for her help. Our extended conversation reflected your sensitive and caring spirit as well as the depth of her loss to your family.

The memories of those who have gone home to be with God in peace and love, keep them alive in the hearts of those left behind. I know you, your family and many others continue to feel Sharon's presence. Your kindness, allowed me to experience her presence again and I will always be grateful. My thoughts and prayers and God's comfort be with you and your family at this time.

Michael and extended family:
Sharon was a wonderful caregiver to our mother, Jean Thompson, during her last years. We greatly appreciated her love and her gentleness. May God's comfort be yours at this time.

Sharon was a faithfilled,kind,generous,gentle woman who was a genuine supportive presence in our midst. Though gone from our sight our faith assures us that our loss is only for a little while. Life is not ended for Sharon, it is merely changed and we know we will meet again.
While we wait for that joyfilled reunion Sharon has left us so much in her life example.

All of us are richer and better because we knew Sharon.
