Art, Chris and to her family,
I am very sorry for your loss. Sharon was one of my dearest friends. She could always make you laugh even when you didn't want to. I will miss our Saturday phone calls. We could and did talk for hours. She was my Rock in the most difficult time in my life. She had a way of always pointing you in the right direction. I loved her like a sister and I will miss her dearly. We all have lost an angel on earth but I know she will always be near. God speed my friend!!! I love you!
