I recall many times being with Sharon first of all meeting her and sharing lunchtime with her at Honeywell back in the 80s we also both loved garage sales where we would find "such bargains" and the fun that went along with being with her! She helped me thru a marriage crisis of which I will always be grateful. She was by my side in so many conflicts I had in my life, one in particular I recall was when she would drive me to Tempe to see my precious granddaughter, Citrus (because I was so leary of the freeway and still am) she did not have grandkids so in a way I felt that I was sharing Citrus with her. I could go on however when she became ill we had a parting that I still don't quite understand so I was not aware the cancer had returned and also of her passing (I have not had a computer for at least 8yrs and got lost in the loop. Recently my sister looked Sharon up on her laptop and found the obituary. I was so sad I cannot express.......I wish I could have been there to offer support. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE MANY KINDNESSES AND ALSO HER UNSELFISH SPIRIT. My sympathy goes out to Bill, Wendy and the rest of her many relatives and friends. With love, Jan Golba

One of my best friends, I will always miss visiting AZ and going to our favorite restaurant to get our potato soup in a bread bowl. She was a very kind person, and I'm going to miss her.

Sharon had a heart of gold. She had a servant attitude as the Lord showed we should have. She had a love of pets that could not be surpassed. It was a privilage for Tami and I to be able to travel with her and Bill to a few places. Going to Australia was on her bucket list, and we were very happy to enjoy it with her. I will never forget this lovely woman.

What a special, extraordinary woman she was. She was kind to others and had a real gift for friendship. Seemingly mild, she could be fierce in protecting her children or any animal. I shall miss her so much.
