So very sorry for your loss. Sharon was an amazingly strong and wonderful woman. Her door was always open for anyone in need. She loved to laugh, had a strong sense of faith and family and was always a good friend to me. She was exactly the women Vince needed to share a life with. Her legacy lives on in her children and grandchildren.
