Vickie & Arlene,
Thank you for this tribute to Sharon. It is an honor to have her words and memory as a part of NGA!

That brings a little heartache and she will be on my mind today. I'll be outside in the flower beds so I'll have plenty to think about.

Love the collage. Only knew Sharon a short time but I felt like she was a dear friend. We had some lively discussions. I remember how excited she was about the wedding and I see she looked so beautiful on the arm of her brother.

People try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved

I regret that I never got to meet her in person.
I love the photo of her standing in her classroom. What an awesome teacher she must have been.

I was honored to have known Sharon through this site.
My memories of her many posts, articles and insight
make my life more complete. She is now at rest in
her beloved Appalachian mountains. Rest in God's
peace Sharon.

I still think of you often Sharon. Every October I think of the hunters moon and the story you told of it.
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
