To Rose and the Ryan family, our heartfelt condolences for the loss of your beloved Sharon.
Tom,
May God cast light upon you and the Ryan family in these days of deep sorrow. I don’t know Sharon, in the sense of having shared conversation with her. The kindness I’ve witnessed, of her brethren, provides insight into her spirit and her memory lives within you all. My thoughts and prayers.
So sorry to everyone for your loss.
Aunt Dolly and “boys”
I don’t have any words other than a feeling of deep sadness. Sharon was “the cousin” who we could always count on to be smiling and helpful no matter what the situation. Our two children will always remember the days at Aunt Dolly’s house swimming with the girls and having fun. We only have the memories of backyard picnics and St Patrick’s day corn beef but she truly had an impact on our lives that will last forever. This tragic loss has reminded us that we need to stay connected more and that we all need to keep that happening.
We love you all,
Robyn Proto
John and I remember Sharon in high school, Condolences to the family.
Right now, when your loss is so fresh, it may be difficult for you to imagine that this pain will ever go away. But in time the blessing of God’s unfailing love will soften the hurt you’re feeling and bring your heart the peace, comfort and hope that it needs to heal. How? Revelation 21:4 tells us that soon everything that causes us pain, including death, will be gone forever. We also have the hope of our loved ones being resurrected here on earth, as Acts 24:15 tells us. I do hope you find comfort in this. My heartfelt condolences.
Shayla and family
Please accept my condolences for the loss of your mother. From what I heard, she was a great woman to be admired. I’ll be thinking about you girls and praying for you . Just remember you girls will always have a guardian angel!!
Love Stacie Petitte
Tom and Maria,
So very sorry for your loss. May the memories you hold comfort you at this most difficult time. In my thoughts and prayers.
For Sharon and to Sharon’s family,
May your road ever rise up to meet you,
May fair winds blow softly to shore you up,
May the Lord’s sunshine dispel the darkness,
May Heaven’s tears wash out al fear,
And, when we meet again, yay, until we meet again,
May the good Lord cradle and comfort you in His hand.
We welcomed Sharon to our Work Family, at Built Right, and in no time, she shared with us what those who love her know to be her greatest gift: the easy and affable warmth of her smile and laughter. Sharon’s smile was a light to us, and will remain as a bright light now, in our memories.
All of us, at Built Right, wish to express our deepest sympathy for Sharon’s family. We sincerely hope that peace and solace will be granted them, as they face the loss of their dearest, Sharon.
Sorry to here about Sharon . Haven’t seen her since she was young and lived in ghe house on Pearl Street. Would love to have the grandmothers Irish Soda Bread recipe.
I had the pleasure of meeting Sharon in April my good friend Joe introduced us. In June we hung out at my girlfriends house warming party. I felt like I had known her forever. We knew a lot of the same people and followed some of the same bands. I was deeply saddened to hear of her passing. My deepest sympathy go out to her family and friends. I pray that in time God brings you peace and comfort knowing Sharon is fully in his beauty and grace. Sharon I am honored to have met you.
Soryy to here of your loss. We haven’t seen Sharon since she was young and living in the house on Pearl Street. Nice to hear she made her grandmothers Irish Soda Bread . Wish I had that recipe.
We are sorry for your loss, our thoughts and prayers are with you.
The sudden and tragic passing of Sharon stuns me and now days later I find that I still cannot believe it. I will never forget her great smile and smirk that would come across her face coupled with that warm and stunning personality of hers. Sharon was a beautiful person who had a large heart and I will miss her. Mrs. Ryan, Sara, Shayla, Tommy, Ed and Mike, my sincerest thoughts are with you all.
With deepest sympathy,
Roland
So sad to hear this news Tom. May God render strength to you, Maria and all of your family.
Ed and Family I am so sorry for your loss. Please accept my most sincere condolences.
Sue
No words can express the extreme sadness and disbelief that such a beautiful soul as Shaon has passed. As your next door neighbors, we were welcomed so warmly and truly felt like part of your family from the time we first moved in 7 years ago. Sharon was such a loving and good natured woman, and her light and spirit surely must go on in the hearts and minds of all of us who had the privilege to know her. May your family find peace and strength through this difficult time, love to all.
So sorry for your Families loss. May she RIP.
My condolences to Family and Friends of a beautiful young lady I was fortunate to know as a pool hall team member in 2014 at Steel Horse, and through Facebook (where she continuously wrote of Loving her Family through her visiting them).
