I will never forget my best friend in High School. My heart breaks for the family of Sharon. There are no words, I look at your beautiful boys and know what a good job you and Michael did in raising them. May you live on the memories of all the good and positive times you've had, to give you the strength to go on. No one should lose their mom at such a young age. She is at peace now. I'm praying that gives you comfort in knowing that. I share your pain, I loved her too! God Bless you!
