Dear Bob and Family,
My sincere condolences to all of you. My first image when I think "Sharon Quicksall" is a SMILE! We were in Girl Scouts together in 1950, when her mother was leader. I always loved her. Sincerely, Laurie Goad Wilson

Sharon, was always a warm and gracious lady to chat with in whatever surroundings. She had been through several medical challenges in her life, and seemed to have alot of strength to endure, I'm sure with alot of love and support from her family. May she rest in peace. My heart goes out to her family.

Some of my favorite memories are from visiting Bob and Sharon at their home near Morgan and then after they had moved out by my grandmother on Thomas Road. I know she was very loved. While I had lost contact for many years, I can say with a smile on my face that I got to see Sharon a few times in the last few years and I am so glad. She was as happy and full of life as ever, seeming to never let anything get her down.
She will be greatly missed. My hear, my love and my thoughts go out to the entire Kibler clan.
