We are very sorry to learn of Sharon's passing. I can remember when we were members of the "Cradle Roll", a mothers' group, at EPLC. (over 40 years ago) Sharon was very kind and invited us ladies (some brought along their lively youngsters)to her lovely home. We all had a wonderful time coffee-klatsching and sharing stories. I admired Sharon's poise and grace.

We know that Ray and Sharon were able to travel to exotic places and enjoy themselves. We remember talking to Ray about that a few years ago and we make it a point to do the same.

Our family extends its sympathies to the family of dear Sharon.
