.

The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Sterling City Nursing Home for the care and love they showed our mother, and to Interim Hospice and Health Care for their support and compassion during her final days.

When life on Earth has ended,

And my work below is done,

I'll meet my Lord and Savior,

And hear Him say, "Well done."

Though parting brings us sorrow,

And tears may often fall,

We'll meet again in Heaven.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial donations be made to Sterling City Nursing Home in Sharon's honor.
