Beautiful Sharon


Sharon is a dear friend who has been fighting cancer for 6 years now. The first time I met her, I knew there was something different. Her faith is incredible. A lot like Abraham I would say. I am thankful to have met someone so pure in heart. She is truly one of the most amazing ladies I have ever met. Sharon, you will never know how thankful I am for meeting you and I will never look at things the same. Thank you for all you share and represent. You and your family are such a blessing. May your days be filled with things as beautiful as you are.
