Sharon was a wonderful woman who was loved by all.

She is at rest now with Larry and her girls who went before her.

Sharon's wonderful parents, Al and Lorraine Gillard were our landlord and landlady on Mineral Street. I remember Sharon well...she baby-sat me when I was little. I remember when she married Larry and moved to California. I still have some of the mementos they sent me.

My sympathies are with all of you, as I know you will miss her deeply.

My condolences for your loss. May the words at Isaiah 35:5,6 give you comfort and peace.

Charity and Candace. I feel so honored to have known and worked with your Mother. She was always willing to help when she could with any problems that came up.
She was a good friend, who I lost contact with due to my health problems and her move.
My prayers go with you and her.

I am so sorry for your loss. May the God who "binds up the brokenhearted" and "comforts all who mourn" sustain you during this difficult time. (Isaiah 61:1,2). My prayers are with your family.

Candace and Charity: I am so sorry to learn about your Mother. I have fond memories of all of you from the days with Betty at Club 24. My prayer is that you and your families may find peace even as you grieve. May God be with you.
