Sharon and I coached girl´s volleyball for many years at St. Paul of the cross school. She was one of the most prepared and well educated on the sport. She enjoyed watching and coaching Katherine and was such a calming force to my more strict coaching style. I loved the time we spent together and will truly miss her. Rest in peace Sharon and know you were a great mother, teacher, coach, and friend. I will miss you.
