For all of those that knew her, you know that Sharon cared deeply for all.

She loved being able to help care for her nieces and nephews and throughout the years her great nieces and nephews, followed by her three granddaughters. Sharon came from a very large and loving family and this was evident in how she lived her life. Sharon journaled frequently about life, her family and world events. She often wrote letters to her siblings within these journals, both to those still here and to those who had gone before her. Sharon loved those around her and those who had gone before her fiercely.
