So sorry to hear about Sharon. She was a great lady, I learned so much from her over the many years. We lived across the street from Sharon and Rod, Cory was my best friend growing up. Many prayers for the family.

I worked with Sharon at Urology P. C. 1977-1979 I always enjoyed my time with her. Such a nice lady. So sorry for your loss.

Sharon and Rod were one of the “founding families” of my childhood neighborhood. I have known them for well over 40 years and they have been a blessing in my life. Once John and I retired we joined the “snowbird” movement to Mesa/Apache Junction and had fun meeting up with them for a visit and a great meal out. Sharon … you were such a loving Christian woman and I am so grateful that you were part of my life. God bless you and keep you in His care.

LeRoy and I were neighbors with Rod and Sharon or over 40 years in Lincoln and spent time with each other at our Arizona winter retreats for 12 years. LeRoy and Sharon shared a birthday and we enjoyed celebrating together many times. Both LeRoy and Sharon are now in their heavenly homes and while we miss them both dearly we know we will all be together one day soon. Many prayers and wishes for peace and comfort to Sharon’s family and friends.
