Sharon
I attended the funeral a true saint today. She planned the service and, as I sat in the church, it was almost as if she were preaching it herself. Every scripture that was read and every song that was sung, I could picture Sharon, herself, delivering the Word of God with such confidence and expression and singing with that sweet, sweet smile she always had on her face and her eyes closed as if singing only to her Savior, Jesus Christ. And then I realized she was singing, but not in that church, she was singing in the PRESENCE of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!! Oh, how we will miss her, but she left a legacy that will live on forever in her husband, her children, her family, and the women whose lives she so sweetly touched in Explorer's Bible Study. I will be forever grateful to her for all she has taught me and I pray that I can have the same kind of hunger she had for knowing the Lord and growing in the knowledge and wisdom of our Savior. I will miss you, sweet, Sharon, and I will pray daily for your sweet family that the Lord will give them exactly what they need for each day as they begin the grieving process at the loss of such a gracious and loving wife, mother, daughter, and friend.
