To the Porter family,
Sharlee was a great lady. Her faith in God was evident in how she lived; always having a kind word and a smile. I grew to love her and will miss her greatly. Please know that I will be praying for you in the coming weeks.

My deepest sympathy to her family. I remember her talking about all of you, so proud and loving everyone.
Monday night was movie night for a few friends and one night she was talking about finding a small job for a little while, hearing this , I asked her if she would like to come at the flower shop and work, her reply right away was, oh I didn't talk about that so you would ask me too come to work for you like I was doing her a favor, little did she know, my reply was oh no you will be doing me a favor, it wasn't long before she knew what I meant. It was work, but plenty of good times she told me so often. I am truly grateful she was in my life and our family. Gabe Lausier
