JIm & Ben,
Where do I start? Even though it has too long since we have been in touch, I am filled with fond memories and an aching heart at the loss. Sharon was always great to be around. I am also awed by the work of our Lord. How beautiful to be received into His arms on Divine Mercy Sunday, and showered by the rays of His merciful love poured forth from His heart. I so wish I could come and be with you even for just a moment. I will attend Mass here on Wednesday and offer my prayers to the LOrd in union with all of yours, for both the repose of Sharon's soul and the comfort of the Holy Spirit upon you two and her loved ones.

God bless,
Bill & Terri Meaney
