Rest in heaven, Sharon. Just learned of your passing. Neighbors on Oakridge who enjoyed Les, Sharon, Millie and Olive. A wonderful kind spirit she was.

Dear family members,

Sharon’s life arc crossed mine through the decades. I can see her bright smile, hear her distinctive speaking voice, marvel at her constant energy. She was my mentor teacher at Temple Emanu El. Did you know that she and I were pretty good badminton players and had fun competing against other pairs? Both of us were invested in Jewish education. I am beyond sad that she is no longer with us. Sincere condolences to all.

dan, i am very sorry for your loss.

I am terribly sorry for your loss. It was my privilege to help care for Sharon and Les's dog Olive, and their previous pets, Millie and Sally. I was truly impressed with Sharon's devotion to doing absolutely everything to make sure her pets lived their best lives. In every visit to the clinic, Sharon had a warm smile for each person on our staff. Although it was easy to be enamored by sweet Olive, it was the warmth and sincerity Sharon showed that I treasured even more. May her memory remain a blessing for your family and all of the lives Sharon touched.

Dear Dan, Melanie and Family,

Please accept our deepest sympathies on the loss of your mother/grandmother. We are thinking of you.

Dear Dan & Karen & families,

I first met your mom when we worked together at the JCC 45 years ago. I have so many memories of her. We had so much fun planning all kinds of programs together. How fortunate that our paths crossed again at the end of her life. I'm glad that I could be there for her and for all of you. She was such a special person and one who will be missed very much. Thinking of all of you at this difficult time.

Dear Dan, Melanie, Emma & Samantha: Fred and I are very sad to hear about your mother’s passing. I was very lucky to have spent time with Sharon when she would be in Toronto. We shared a lot of laughs when we were together at Emma’s Bat Mitzvah. I would always gravitate to her as she reminded me a lot of Rifka. We are thinking of all of you at this very sad time.  Will give you a big hug when we see you in Toronto. Love, Rhonda & Fred

Dan, Melanie, Emma and Samantha,

May all the memories  you have sustain you in the days and weeks ahead.
