Just this morning a friend from the Church of the Advent in Boston told me Sharon had died. I remember her wedding, her ordination to the priesthood, and when she gave birth to Nathaniel [though I thought she'd spelled his name differently]. I was sorry that our paths diverged. Sharon had quite a dry sense of humor as well as a very sharp mind. May she rest in peace.

I just learned of Sharon's passing & was surprised & saddened. I knew her from when she worked at Flenniken Library. We were in book club together, & I always admired her for her intelligence. I didn't know she was a member of the clergy. I hope her kitty finds another good home. He will miss her & grieve for her as will her family & friends. So dear friend, fly high in Heaven & rest in eternal peace.
