I was so incredibly lucky to have Sharon "take me under her wing" my first year of teaching at Steele. I then realized it was not luck...she was a God send when I was moved to Gale and once again...she was there. She was so loving! She is an angel on many students and teachers shoulders!

Sharon was one of my favorite people at Steele Elementary. She always went above and beyond in her job as our Computer Tech and her unfailing good humor was a pleasure to all. I have missed her and was shocked when I heard of her passing. My sincere condolences to her family.

It was sad to hear of Sharon's passing. I have many memories of all of the lessons she put together in the computer lab at Steele Elementary for my kindergarten students. She also helped me by doing graphs for my masters thesis. Sharon you were a joy to have at Steele.

I was so saddened to hear of Sharon's passing. She was always such a joyful person, helping students and me too. When I first started working at Steele Sharon made it a point to assist me in whatever I needed. My condolances to her family. I will miss Sharon.

When I first heard about dear Sharon's passing I literally gasped. I was truly blest to know Sharon both at Gale and Steele Elementary Schools. She was the most consistently positive and quietly kind person I've known. She took such care with anything connected with the children, the computer lab, and any technology issues and problems for the teachers! Plus, she often thought ahead about what might be future needs ... for example, the Steele Junior Webmasters are still using the camera that Sharon purchased with some extra funds (& I would think also a bit of her own!). To Sharon's family, know that we are holding you up in prayer. Be well, and please let us know what we might be able to do for you.

Aunt Sharon will continue to be in all our hearts for ever more. She was a one-of-a-kind gal that every one thought the world of. My kids and many other children will feel her absence in the many years that follow, since she was always a kid at heart. We all miss you so much Aunt Sharon.

Three generations.

I have so many wonderful memories of Mom. She was a wonderful woman who I'd say loved everyone she ever met, she always talked fondly about everyone as well; even those who may have crossed her at one point or another. She taught me that people make mistakes and I must accept them for who they are. I will miss her terribly and wish she could have held her newest Granddaughter. I love you MOM!! Rest in peace! XOXOXOXO
love Katherine
