My heartfelt sympathies, love and prayers are with all of you. Unfortunately, we were only to know Sharon and the few times I had the privilege to were for wonderful occassions. Even while not her best she showed great strength, kindness, and a determination to smile. Those wonderful traits will carry on in the rest of you for a lifetime.
All our love and sympathy
