Aunt Sharon, after being married to uncle Al, you definitely have a one way ticket to God´s Kingdom. We never stayed close knit, but I always remember you kind disposition and the love for your family. I hope that Michael, James, Donald, Carol and the other children you had all grew up with the same love and respect that you had for family. I´m sorry I didn´t hear that you were in need of prayers, but am saying them now. God Bless You and Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord let perpetual light shine upon her, may her soul and the souls of all the faithfully departed, rest in peace. Amen

Dear Carole and family,
We were deeply saddened to hear of the passing of your beloved mother, Sharron. Please accept our heartfelt condolences during this difficult time.
Sharron was a truly special soul-kind, loving, and endlessly caring. Her warmth touched everyone around her, and her smile had a way of lighting up even the quietest corners of a room. She carried grace in her presence and generosity in her heart, and we feel so fortunate to have known her.
Though words can never fully ease the pain of such a loss, we hope you find comfort in the beautiful memories you shared and in the love that surrounds you now. Sharron´s spirit lives on in the kindness she gave and the joy she brought to others.
We are holding you close in our thoughts and sending love to you and your family.
With all our sympathy,
The Salamah family
