I Had Planned On Attending The Services, But Work Constrained Me. I Want To Reach Out To Sharon’S Friends And Family To Let Them Know That Although I Have Only Known Sharon For A Short Time, She Has Had A Profound Impact On Me And My Students. My Students Loved Her Honestly And Grit, As Did I. This State Truly Lost A Patriarch, And Heaven Gained An Amazing Angel. Me, And My Students, Go Out To Her Friends And Family. Semper Fi Sharon, And Rest In Peace.

Aunt Lena’S Family Is Thinking Of Sharon Today. We Learned Arrangements Late Sat. Evening, But None Of Us Will Be Attending. I Do Not Like To Drive Longer Distances In The Off On Heavy Rain Of Today. Frank, In Ripley, Is Caring For Wife Becky Who Had Surgery On Thursday. Lois, In Charleston, Does Not Go Out In Weather Like This. Homer Lives Near Atlanta, Darwin (Darby) South Of Dallas, And Dawn (Pinky) Near Cleveland. I Will Go To My Beloved New Era One Room School Museum, Where We Held A Memorial Service For Daddy (Otho) In 1996, And Lower Its Flag To Half Staff For The Day In Sharon’S Honor And Memory. Uncle Max Would Have Been Puffed With Pride At Her Accomplishments, And Aunt Bun More Quietly Proud And Pleased.
If Anybody Is Going North On Their Way Home, I’D Love To Meet Up For A Visit. Call Me 304-489-3630 And Leave A Message If I Don’T Answer.
All Of Us Send Our Love And Care.
