I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Sharon and so sorry this is so late. I was just looking her up to wish her a happy birthday when I saw the sad news.
I worked for Sharon at Allstate for many years. She was the most caring, honest, loving, hard working person I have known. Through the years I felt like I knew her children and grandchildren through all the stories she shared. Her love for family was unbelievable! My deepest sympathies to her entire family. She was one of a kind!
