My deepest condolences to Jason and Justin and the Owensville Staff. Sharon was my supervisor for 4 years while employed at what was OPC. I will remember those fun days always. I last spoke to Sharon this last fall and it was nice to catch up. She will be greatly missed. Thoughts and prayers are with you all.
