    I have memories of Sharon from early in Elementary school. We danced together, played tennis and had sleepovers often. I remember watching the Royal wedding of Charles and Diana at her house in 1981. With the most recent Royal wedding I keep thinking of her and our friendship. I wished I could have been a better friend to Sharon. She was a good person and came from a wonderful family.

    Sharon will always be remembered as one of my dearest friends. There are too many memories to count! Sleepovers in her back yard and the sprinklers turning on and getting us drenched, going to Mr G's with her sweet Mom for treats, and just talking late into the night. I think of her often...she is truely missed!
