My prayers go out to you and your family. I too am one of your former classmates and am happy to say that I knew Sharon.
I also lost my spouse some time ago, so I know the pain & loss you are feeling. Be comforted to know Sharon is in the hands of the Lord now.

We are so sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. We will be unable to attend either service, but our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this trying time. She is now with her Savior. RIP Mrs. Kirschner
So very sorry to hear this news…Sharon was such an important part of my early years; many of my first memories are of spending time with her. Thinking of all of you during this time.
Tom,in my memories of more than 50 years, I recall a very sweet and pretty girl in an ROTC Uniform. You were blessed with each other for all those years and I hope the memories will help sustain you. You are both in my heart and prayers.
We are so sorry to hear of Sharon’s passing. She was such a help to us when the girls (Jenny and Jacey) were young. They have many memories of their time with her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
SORRY TO HEAR OF YOUR LOSS.
My prayers are with you at this time of loss. Tom I know the LORD will be with you and you family. He will give you peace and comfort.
I am so sorry to hear about Sharon. We had a great time in High School and I remember Sharon. My heart is with all of your family. God Bless
Grandma,
You not being here hasnt quite set in. Josh and I spent so much time with you as we were growing up and I wouldnt change it for the world. All the summers at your house were amazing. You made such an impact on all of us.
I wish I could have just one more day with you to just be able to tell you how much Im going to truly miss you.
I also want to let you know as you look down on us that you married one of the greatest husbands the world has got. The way he has taken care of you for so long and was ALWAYS so optimistic was incrediable. I have always had the upmost respect for Grandpa but after watching him care for you the way he did he has taken the level of respect to a whole new level.
So in closing Grandma I am going to miss you terribly and I love you very much, Grandpa I probably havent told you but I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking care of your wife, a mother and the greatest Grandma a guy could ask for.
Love you Grandma and Ill see you again.
Dustin
Tom,
Just found this out a few days ago. I am so sorry. I know that it has been a struggle the last few years. If there is anything I can do,don’t hesitate to call. God Bless and Keep You.
