Randy, Dawson and family - Doug joins me in expressing our condolences. May God be with you at this difficult time.

Randy, Dawson and family - My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time.

Please accept my sincere words as memories you can hold on to about Sharon, your daughter, wife and most of all mother. I had the privledge and enjoyment of teaching with her when she first started teaching.  Sometimes we had to move or teach from carts because there were not any available permanent rooms for us.  She always had something funny, and positive to say about the whole expereince. Sharon was a ball of fire, teaching, listening, and nurturing students to be  strong learners and take pride in their individual uniquness.  I know she will be missed by many and loved by all who knew her.  Julie S Riley, Wichita, KS

Randy and family, Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family during this time of sorrow.

My prayers and thoughts are with Randy, Emilie, and Dawson, and extended family at this time of great loss.  Sharon will be missed in the WSFCS Psychology Department.  She was fun, caring, and interested in providing useful services to help children succeed in school.  She was a bright light to me.  With heartfelt condolences-

Please know Randy, Emilie, and Dawson that the many teachers, parents, and students lives Sharon touched are grieving with you.  Think of the love she had for life, and travel. My prayers are with you as you adjust to your new reality as Sharon is held in the Lord's hands.

I was so saddened to hear about Sharon's passing and will miss working with her and seeing her smiling face at Vienna.  Your family is in my thoughts and prayers, and I hope that the wonderful memories that you have of her will provide some comfort during this difficult time.

I had the honor of teaching with Sharon at Wineteer Elementary.  I loved to watch her work with her students.  She was a gifted teacher.  She often talked about her family.  You could tell that she was a wonderful mother.  Last year, I had the opportunity to work with Sharon at Pleasantview Elementary.  It was good to be around her positive attitude and warm smile again.  She will be missed by so many.  My sympathy goes out to her family.  You are in my thoughts and prayers.

And always had a smile on her face.I was very heartbroken to learn of the news of her transitioning . we always share our stories about how things were going with our children of the morning at wineteer she had a great love for her family.  may the Lord keep His loving arms around you in this time of need and give you comfort praying for you all sharon is definitely missed

I'm so sorry to find out about Sharon's death.  I taught with her at Oaklawn Elementary. She was a good teacher.  She loved to laugh and kid around making it fun to be around her.  My heart goes out to her family and I will pray for God to hold them close as they grieve for her.

I worked with Sharon at Wineteer when she was a special education teacher. She was a wonderful teacher and friend. She was always keeping us laughing with her hilarious anecdotes about life, shopping, teaching, or whatever. She always had such common sense approaches to everything. 
She never made her faith a secret, so it is a comfort to know she is safe in the loving arms of Jesus. She will be deeply missed.

I was blessed with the opportunity to work with Sharon for 2 years in Derby. After a few weeks of working with Sharon, I began to realize how much of a caring and wonderful person she was. She often talked about her children and how much she supported their education and interests. She wanted so much for them, and was willing to do everything she could to support them. From the bottom of my heart, my thoughts and prayers go out to her family. She was truly a genuine person, and it was an honor working with her. Sharon will be missed.

We are broken hearted for your family. May God give you comfort at this difficult time. Praying for you!

Sharon was one of the greatest people that I had the pleasure of knowing. Was in school together for the majority of our young lives. The world always will miss and need people like Sharon in it. So sorry for her families loss.

I am so very sorry for your loss.  Sharon worked with us at Vienna Elementary, here in NC, and was an asset to our team.  Please know we are lifting your family up and will do anything we can for Dawson during this difficult time.

Sharon was an important part of our Vienna Elementary School family. We loved her dedication to our students and to her career. We also loved her saucy personality! She always had a smile on her face and was so much fun to be around. Our hearts go out to the entire Atherton family especially Dawson. Dawson, all of your classmates, teachers, Mrs. Davis and I are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.

John,
I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. With love, Ginger Harvill

I did not know your sister Mary, but, I do know this. She is with God now and will always be watching over you and your Mom. I know you are missing her terribly and I hope my prayers for her will heal your broken heart. Anything I can do for you in this time of need, please do not hesitate to ask.

I worked with Sharon at Wineteer.  She was a great person.  She will be deeply missed. You all are in my thoughts and prayers
