Dear Jim, Karen, Kathy, Tom, and all of your families,
Our heartfelt sympathies go to all of you in the great loss of a wife, and mother, and grandmother. We are so saddened by this great loss. Our memories of Sharon go back many years ago when you were living in Concord California. Our families had small children at the time. We send you all prayers and blessings. ,
Jean and Steff Veltema
