Aunt Sharon you will be missed by all of your family. We loved you... I think of you often on Easter. It was always at your family's, with great food (baklava) all the cousins' tighter sharing stories of what was going on. I hope you get a fun send off party. I won't be there in person but I will in spirit. This is good by for now but it is not the end we will all meet again when it's time to come home. Love you.
