Henry --- I am so sorry for your loss. It made me feel so good to see how great your love for Sharon was. You were always there for her no matter what. She was definitely number one in your life and I commend you for that. Please remember that if you need someone to listen, I am always available. I didn't know Sharon that long but felt like it was years because of her gentle and friendly ways. Please be assured that my prayers are with you and your family.

Henry,



I was so saddened to hear about Sharon's passing. I was her academic advisor at Daniel Webster College. She struggled so hard during her EXCEL program to keep up with work, school and family obligations. I marveled at her strength. She was a role model for her entire class.



My thoughts are with you and your family at this most difficult time.

Dear Henry,



Please accept my sincere condolences over your tragic loss. Though I did not know Sharon, I am impressed by the family's description of Sharon and you as a true partnership. It seems to me, then, that your work with us and your contributions to our nation's security represent an outgrowth of that partnership. My colleagues and I offer, therefore, our profound respect to your family at this most difficult time.

There has been a tear in my eye since I heard the news about Sharon. I have been remembering the times when we first started MITRE. She was so dedicated to work and family. At 18 years old I could not believe all the tasks Sharon completed with work and family. As 32 years of age I am just impressed! Sharon .. miss you. God Bless.
