Sharon loved life and was a beautiful example of kindness to everyone who knew her. Her faithfulness to her Savior, Jesus Christ, influenced the way she lived her life. She understood the value of hard work, and always had a job from the time she was fourteen years old. She excelled in her career and acted as a compliance manager, and a broker dealer auditor. She had a strong passion for the arts, just as she had a strong passion for education. She loved sewing, drawing, dancing, reading, gardening, listening to music, traveling the world, and finding creative ways to keep things organized. She found great joy in motherhood, and always made time for her children.
Sharon was an incredible wife and mother. She loved Roland very much, and spent much of her free time working on projects and going on walks with him. She loved listening to the needs of her family, and sharing her valuable advice. She saw the good in each person she met, and encouraged others to reach the potential she saw in them. She loved to laugh, and find joy in the world around her. She was an extremely humble, kind, beautiful, courageous, trustworthy, and graceful woman. She will be remembered as someone whose presence continually made those around her better and stronger.
