I was so shocked by this news; I thought Sharon would be with us for many years to come. She went way before her time was up.
I always loved her Aunt Bett articles from way back when, and we spoke together often about her writings. Back in 2010, when DG/IB gave me the boot, she was one of the most encouraging people to us, prodding us on and letting us know that she believed in us. Looking back at our email exchanges, I see how much of an influence she had in our starting Cubits and later ATP and now Garden.org. She was the 3rd non-family member to join Cubits when it was originally launched. Her contributions and encouragements to us were a gigantic help at that time.
She played a large part in forming the initial community that still gathers together at Cubits and Garden.org. Her presence will continue to be felt in this community long after her passing.
Trish and I will never forget her friendship, her loyalty, and the compassion she showed the people around her.
