David, Alison and Elaine - I'm so sorry to hear about Sher. I loved the time over the years I spent with her and the "sisters" she was a gem. Life sometimes gets in the way of making sure the connection is not broken between friends and you all were more than just friends you were family to me. I can't imagine what you must be feeling at this moment all I can say right now is you will be in my prayers and if there is anything I can do, please let me know. Love Nancy Cervoni
