Sharon was more than a friend; she was the ultimate example of what a Christian should be. She was the epitome of love, kindness and giving. Never met a stranger she wasn't able to turn into a fast friend. Her absence from this world has created a brilliant light in the heavens. Sharon and her beautiful smile will be greatly missed by all those who love and cherish her. She is not gone for she lives in our hearts forever.

My Mother Janet Scheller and Sharon were great friends for many years. Sharon made the flowers, and somehow my Mother delivered the flowers to people that were members of the Riverbend Club. Rest in Peace Sharon.

Ed and I were sad to hear of Sharon's passing. She was a kind and caring person who made everyone in her presence feel special. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends.
