Sharon Williams Obituary

WILLIAMS, Sharon Celeste Sharon Celeste Williams passed away on February 27, 2015 at home in Sacramento surrounded by family. Sharon was born in Cheyenne, Wyoming to Alex Sanchez and Delma G. Valdez on May 19, 1957. Sharon was 57 years of age at her passing, was preceded in death by her Granddad Eloy and Grandma Elvera Valdez, and Auntie Nancy Kimbro of Cheyenne, Wyoming. Here in Sacramento she is survived by her best friend and soul mate Howard Williams, her husband of 38 years. Her loving mother Delma Valdez, daughter Tanya Miller, son Alex Williams, granddaughter, Lexus Fletcher & London Fobbs, brother Larry Lozano, sister Rita Sanchez, and numerous cousins, nephews, nieces, and friends. Sharon is also survived by her uncles John Valdez in Roseville, CA. Jim E. Valdez in Arizona, and Lee Valdez in Colorado. Auntie Rosalie Valdez in Denver, and numerous cousins, nephews, nieces & friends in Colorado. Sharon was strong in mind, body and soul and never a quitter. The more she was told she could not, the harder she tried. In 1996 she came out of a coma after doctors said she would not live through the night. In 2010 she was declared cancer free after a five year battle. She was told she would never walk unassisted again; but she did, only proving her courageous spirit and love for life. Sharon attended Burbank High School at a younger age and played various sports. She loved camping, boating, fishing, water and snow skiing. Sharon was absolutely fearless in everything she attempted and loved and protected her kids with the tenacity of a mother bear with cubs. She will be sorely missed. Sharon is now with God and finally free from pain! Viewing on Wednesday March 11 from 4-8 pm Funeral Service at Thursday, March l2 at 10 am.

Five years ago today, another year since that excruciating moment you exhaled your last breath. I am coping with it, it does't get easier and I haven't gotten used to it. Every night is the same. Scary, sadness, and more than ever, loneliness! Tanya and Lexus still struggle to make it through every year at this time. I struggle too! I just cannot let them see how much, they do lean on me so much. So I draw on our Lord for strength, I always receive it. He is merciful and graceful every time. I will listen to our oldies tonight until I fall asleep. It is one thing which gives me joy, knowing we share this now, as we always did. Always and forever, my Little Woman.

Happy Anniversary my love. Our 43rd. Our 5th apart in the flesh, forever together in spirit and love. Our love will always bind us! Our children are our legacy, and I will do all I can to show them true love. Our grand daughters and 1 year old grandson keep me going! What a year, so many challenges, so much sadness and despair among the extended family, esp after the loss of your mom. I focus on the happy moments, I don't have time for the nonsense and negative. I am feeling my age more, much more after my last birthday. Old arthur is attacking everywhere now, the pain has hit like a sledge hammer. I do not fear dying, I do fear the pain. I hope I have half the courage you did when God comes calling. I am in no hurry, the young ones need me. I'm tired and gonna hit the sack. Tomorrow I plan to go visit you and your mom's grave site. I know your both with our Lord, but I go anyways. I love you always, my love, my wife, my life!

Yesterday, after a beautiful service we buried your mom's body. Family and friends from near and far came to pay their respects, and honor a wonderful woman. I know she is now out of pain and dancing with you. I will miss her so very much, so much a part of my life.

Your mom is now with you babe. She fought to her last breath,even fought us, LOL. I already miss her! You know me woman, I usually have no problem writing. I have no words to put to this tribute to your mom right now. We will lay her body to rest soon. I love you, miss you, but I have to hang out with all the youngsters. They still need me.

Still missing you. More than ever, my love. I still turn to talk to you at night and I know you hear me. My heart is breaking for your mom. At least see how much I really care and love her. You are the only one who I can talk to. The older I get the stronger my memories of you grow! My Love, My Love, My Love...

Today marks our fourth year apart in the flesh. We are still together in spirit and I dream of you a lot, I try to go back to sleep. I know our Lord took you in His arms and out of your pain. This helps me get through the difficult and lonely days and nights. Our children and Grand children are my life and help to keep me active. Our new and only Grand son is an awesome gift, I know you smile down as I hold him in my arms. Our son is so proud and already so protective. I miss you so much, I always will. I know we will be reunited when God calls me home. All of us miss you so very much. Hard as I try I could never fill your shoes.I get tired easy now and the pain of growing older is getting worse. I think of you when it gets really bad and ask God to give me the courage and endurance you had. I pray God to help your mom in her suffering and take some of the fear from her. I don't like saying it although she says it over and over. I feel her time is near and it scares me. I love her so very much! She is such a tower of strength! Well babe I am tired and gonna try and sleep now. Will you visit me tonight? I would love it! I love you, my love, my wife, my life! I still remember the kiss you gave me hours before you departed this fleshly realm. The Kiss of Life!

Happy Anniversary my lovely wife! God blessed me with 38 together with you on this earth, and I miss them! It's excruciatingly painful, lonely, and it pierces the heart and soul to spend our fourth one apart. I am selfish to think and feel like this, you are in a awesome place w/o pain. So I spend my time doing my best to be happy. I have so many reasons to enjoy life, the foremost being our kids who have grown into fine young adults. Our granddaughters always give me such joy, and anytime now we will have a grandson! I know you are beaming from ear to ear with a heavenly smile. God always refills my cup with hope, joy for another day,and I pray many more years; for them! When my time comes, I pray I have the courage you did. Please put an extra word in for us; for your mom whose heart is still shattered. For our daughter, son, and granddaughters. I now brace for another day, whatever may come my way. Happy Anniversary! My love, my wife, my life!

October 5, 2017

Hi mom. Tonight I can not sleep. This would be a night I would call you and you'd make me laugh and all would be perfect. London started school. You would be so proud. She reminds me of you in so many ways. And even though she was so very young its amazing bc she remembers the song you'd sing to her. She even sings it. You two shared a bond early. Every time we pray we ask Jesus to kiss you for us so I have to believe you're receiving them. I wish you were here Mom! I wish you were here! There is not a day that goes by that I don't talk to you as if your next to me. And when the day gets unbearable, I call Alex and Dad to hear both of their voices. I find it soothing to talk to them bc we all were a team. It makes me feel like your possibly rt next to Dad when I call. And for one second only, things are back to normal. I love you so much Mom. Always and forever your Mija, Tanya Dee

October 3, 2017

miss you everyday and everynight miss our phone calls miss your Voice but I still have some of our calls recorded which I listen to when I go to bed at night and when ever I think of you ,which is often I find it so hard to be here without you I think that's why London was born to keep me going because you and I were one we were close I miss you so much I will never stop crying for you my Sharon. God help me to keep going for London!s sake I love and miss you soooo much. God Be with you Always I know he is you were a good person you read his book see you when God sees fit.

With tears of joy I try and put in writing words from my heart. I wasn't sure this Guest Book would still be on today. God bless whomever has put it on permanently. I now have more time to add pictures. We all miss you, we all love you. I visit this site to uplift me, today my Dad would have been 95. You were the only one He would let call him "POPS". Yea Dad aka POPS to you, really loved you. Ask JESUS to help your mom and all of us in our physical bodies, and refill our Spirit.

September 2, 2017

Miss you so much , miss your goodnight calls and your good morning calls. I cant even talk about you without breaking down I miss you so much Sharon my Sherry Pie I called you when you were young, when I leave I pray I see you right away, because I have missed you so much, if it wasn't for the Baby London I would have died with a broken heart I miss you my Sharon words cannot express how I feel deep inside without you, I know how Howard must feel you were together so long I love and miss you so much , hope to see you soon.

Wish you were here.

Babe I wasn't sure the last two entries onto this memorial site would make it before it closed. I know this one will. Our Lord works in ways we often don't know. Thank's to the kindness of Sacbee.com, entries may still be made. Three days ago I have finally started the difficult and heart piercing task of packing your personal clothes and belongings. It has produced tears and laughter as vivid memories burst alive. I often wondered where some of my items vanished. I am finding pictures of family, some of which will go into the Guest Book. I am laughing at how many dresser drawers you have compared to me. I am finding notes you wrote about your terrible pain. Notes asking God for forgiveness and salvation. I am finding renewed motivation and courage to face whatever awaits my remaining days. I am being given even more love from you. I love you.

Sharon Williams: Daughter, Sister, Wife, Mother, Grandma (Nonie)and Mother in Law. All titles, the last after you left your earthly body. I do not know if these words will be in this Guest Book. It is in God's hands as all our lives are. I speak for the entire family in saying you were much more than these titles. You were a Woman of God! After 40 years my better half 38 in Marriage-I know. Your were the most respectful of your dear Mom's children. The love you lived and showed all of us will never be gone. The love we have for you will never be gone. We will grieve & miss you until the day we are called to join you. What a day that will be. Sunday brings two years since we laid your body to rest. A day I will never forget even though I was so deep in a fog of despair. All of us were. To all your loved one's already noted, extended family and friends. I can truly say this Book of picture's and words entered from the heart may close. Our hearts and love never will. Never!

Our love-far deeper than words!

I must stay strong in my remaining years. I draw upon the example you set. I pray our Lord continues to give me Mercy and Grace. I pray He continues to let you visit me in my dreams. I pray for all of our family. Watch over me my love. We will always be together forever. You boo boo bear.

Two years ago today you suffered your most painful day, hours, minutes up till God had mercy and sent His Angels to take and deliver your soul to Him.

This month will be a hard one. Filled with depression, sleepless nights, deep thoughts, tears and more tears. February, has claimed the rest of my life. My life will never be the same and February 27, 2015 made sure of that. I miss you Mom. You were the most amazing Mother and best friend. I could come to you about anything. I thank you for every single moment we shared. We would have our inside jokes and laugh until we cried. We did that alot with each other. Thank you, for every single time you hugged me, kissed me, and told me you loved me. Some people weren't even raised with those most important affections that shape a child to become an adult who then gives their child the same. It is so very important. I miss you so much Mom! I love you with all my heart and soul!

Your one and only daughter,

Happy Anniversary my love! Our 40th in soul & spirit, our 2nd physically apart. I love you as much as our 1st. I never forgot one anniversary. I am doing my best to make it through each day, you would have it no other way. I have my ups and downs as we did through our years together. Wow woman we were really in love. We had so much fun. This is what I draw upon for our daughter, son, both granddaughters and your mom. Grab Life and hold it dear as we did, esp. you in the many years you suffered. You left a huge hole in our lives. I for one fill it with all our memories, always thankful for having you as my love, my life, my wife. I miss you my Little Woman. I miss you!

Mom I miss you like crazy. It has been 690 days since you left me. However, it still feels like yesterday. I'm left with such an sensation of loss and emptiness. I do what you taught me to do. What comes natural. Im being the best mom to my daughter's. The thing is a part of my heart and soul died with you. You were my first love. A child born knows her mothers heart beat therefore needs it to have comfort, automatically we know we love you. I am shaken to my core still. Every single day I think of you. Memories flood my head like a constant video loop that can Not stop. I have comfort when with Dad or Alex but then it's like "Where are you? "Why you?". I love you mom

My lovely wife the 2nd. New Year's eve w/o you was so unreal. Last night ended a year which was a emotional roller coaster for the whole family. We all desperately miss you. Always will. For me the New Year brings another step for healing. The happiest and most beautiful memories of you are slowly pushing aside the one's which try to hold me down. In my heart I feel your unbelievable courage and will to go on. Thus I know you want me to move forward in life and be happy. We both know by doing this, your mom, our children & grandchildren will one day do the same. I embrace the promise God fulfilled in you. Eternal life and victory! You are present in spirit and from you I know it is and will be OK.

I actually feel you all the time, you will always be mine. I desperately miss you! I start each day as I end it, with a broken heart. I will never love another! The memories of us, of you & your courage is all I need to go on. When my time comes I will draw upon them to endure to our reunion. How Glorious it will be! I am so lonely my love.

Mom, my best friend. My first love. I miss you so very much. You taught me all about life, you just didn't teach me how to live it without you. I am forever broken. You were the perfect Mother and I thank you for all you have ever taught me and all the love I was shown. I thank our Father above for lending us one of his angels for 57 years. 37 of which I shared. You are truly missed and never EVER will you be forgotten. I miss you so much Mom. I miss our movie time, our talks, our inside jokes and how we would laugh until we cried and our stomachs hurt. I find myself drifting off into thoughts of you. I will forever hold you in my heart mom. I love you!

One year ago today you went away. My heart was shattered, BROKEN! I have battled to try & keep our Family together. The memory of that last kiss, "Kiss of Life" I call it. You awoke from a coma like state and pointed for me to help you sit up. It took all you had left to give me that kiss & hug as you Whispered "I Love You" and pointed to the bed for me to lay you down. I will never forget that. Never! It meant the world to me and is forever engraved into my mind. I will see you in Heaven when our Savior calls me home. Thank you for being my wife.

To a 5th Generation! London "Bridges" Her Love will go on.

My love. My soul mate. My Life. My Wife. In four days it will be a year since your soul left to be with our Lord and Savior. I have played our favorite songs and oldies almost every night as my tears of sorrow mixed with tears of joy from years of memories dropped together onto the very pillows we shared. I love you my Little Woman. You know how much I miss you. In 4 days I will revisit this site to share the true story of our last kiss. Kiss of Life. You of course know I really never leave. What a Gift God has given me the Honor to spend with through better or worse.

Our deepest condolences. John & I wish we had words to comfort and sustain you in your grief, but we know there are none that will take away the pain you are feeling now. We hope and pray for comfort during this very difficult time.

I've been thinking about all of the wonderful times we spent together hanging out at Delma's house swimming, BBQing, laughing, playing cards, board games. Sharon was highly competitive, and she was a best friend, and one that will not be forgotten. She would sing.....my buddy, my buddy, she goes wherever I go, and out the door we'd go - back and forth from my house to her house. We knew how to enjoy life and fill the room with laughter. Yep, the good old days are filled with wonderful memories, and not even death can take that away from me. I hope and pray you, too, will find comfort in the memories, as God truly did bless us with Sharon. She will forever dwell in my heart!

I trust this isn't the end, but the beginning of eternal rest, and may my Buddy rest in peace, finally free from pain!
