Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13
Sharron's relationship with Christ became her life's work. He gave her a smile that was a beacon of light to all who were lucky enough to be in her presence! She was truly created and commissioned by God to show love to those who were in need especially the children. Her love extended far beyond her own family. Christ made her life a living testimony as she persevered through trials and hardships with love. Sharron accepted the will of God often saying, "It is what it is."
