Sharon will always be remembered by her classmates at Central Square as the pretty girl with the biggest smile and quick to laughter. God bless her. My sincerest regrets to her family.
Sharon was one of the 4 Mousketeers who grew up together on Caughdenoy Rd.. Murph anchored the hill at one end with Sharon and Patty in between and yours truly on hill at other end. The memories that were born there in the schools and along that street are so precious. What a beautiful person she became. God Bless Sharon you Fred and all of her Family.
