  2. What a precious lady! I was blessed to have known her and share time with her. She dearly loved her family and her Lord . She will forever be missed but just knowing she’s walking with Jesus can bring peace to us all. May God bless the family during this painful time and give them the assurance their mother is happy now and we’ll see her again one day. Love,Linda

  3. Thinking of you Sharon and your family at a time like this. We all hate to let go of our mom and it is one of the hardest things you will have to do in your life. Robin and I know the feelings well. We were lucky to have them all these years. They both lived a long happy life.
