    You maybe don’t remember me, but I have VERY precious memories of times with you, your mom and Grandma Vera when I was in the Fargo/Moorhead area. I’ve thought of you through the years, but time and distance tends to get in the way. PLEASE know you are being thought of in a special way these days. Your mom has been an inspiration to so many…she will be missed, but she is safe at home now and we rejoice with her. Please take care. Very sincerely, Gwen Aarestad

    I know Sharon was quite into God. I was a CNA at Hospice that cared for her some.

    Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
    Acts 2:39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

    Acts 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
    Acts 2:2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
    Acts 2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
    Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

Last year when I was on my “home visit” it was such a joy to go to the home for the study and always Sharon was a ray of sunshine. She hasn’t had an easy life, and especially the past while, but many have been encouraged by her cheerful ways and strong faith in God. My sincere sympathy in your loss.

    I was deeply saddened to hear of Sharon’s passing. I met Sharon while attending MSU and she left a lasting impression on me. She always had a smile and a friendly word to offer. Sharon often spoke with pride and love of her children Danny and Rosie. My deepest sympathy to the both of you. DeVon
