I remember a dare...we would roll down the hill on our bikes , let go of the handle bars and hold out our arms like soaring angels. And then we would close our eyes! We were invincible! You win, my beloved friend...you are the "soaring-est" angel. I'll miss you, and I'll see you on the other side. -Sue

My sympathy goes out to you. Sharon was a kind person. I will always remember her as a shy girl, always hiding her face when anyone tried to take her picture....

To Sharon's family. I never personally met Sharon but we talked almost everyday through our employment. I know she was very proud of her family. We talked about everything Jennifer changing college. How wonderful her husband was after the surgery and many other things. We shared a common bond. Please accept my deepest sympathy for such a terrible loss. Even through her pain we shared so many laughs. I am going to miss this lovely soft spoken women. God took her to soon. Again my deepest sympathy
