Sharon was a very close friend of our family. She has been there through some major events in my family's life, our engagement, our marriage and births of all our children. Her sense of humor and giving heart is a loss to the community. She was loved by all who met her.

Dearest Sharon,
You have been a personal & spiritual inspiration to Jim and I, through your demonstration of faith, hope, and love. We moved to Akron 4 years ago & came to know you and admire you for your strong dedications to the Lord, your love of friends at church, your love of the Steelers, Punksatawnwey Phil, and last but never least, LILY! Your walk with Jesus was never hampered by the rough road you traveled physically and your great reward is now eternal heaven. Thank you for letting us in your short life as you have made a lasting difference in ours! In God's Peace, Karen & Jim Regallis
