Dear Troyer Family:
I was saddened to hear of your loss. I didn't know your mother, but it sounds like she was a very caring, compassionate, and giving woman. I pray that you will all be comforted by many beautiful memories of time spent together.
Sincerely,

So sorry to learn of Sharon's passing. I have such good memories of working with her at Welborn and visits with her and Ben in later years. She was a wonderful nurse and very good friend. Everytime we talked she spoke so proudly of her children and grandchilden. She will be missed very much.
