My dearest Archie and family,
I am so sorry for the loss of Sharon. I loved her dearly and I know you loved her more. She was an amazing lady to be proud of and cherish her friendship for me and Troy. But know in your heart...we WILL see them again. And MAN! what a good time we will have. Waiting for that day....Bobbie Baker
My heart goes out to Sharons family. I love you all and Sharon is one of my favorite people in the world. She opens her door to anyone. Feeds them delicious food a warm bed if needed and if family can delight you with family history. Also, she gave the best hugs ever. I will miss your sweet smile. Rest in peace Sharon, job well done
Archie, Julie, Eric and Grandkids - my heart breaks to hear of Sharon’s passing. She had such a sweet soul and was always so kind and kept me in the loop with family news. I remember being at your house when I was little and as an adult when I would come home to visit. Sharon had open arms and always made me feel so welcome. She often called when my dad was sick and would tell him stories to cheer him up. I am so sorry that such a wonderful lady has left this earth but now you have a beautiful angel watching over you all. May the wonderful memories you have of her in time replace the sadness in your hearts. Sending prayers, hugs and my love to all. Love - Robyn (Langston) Poitra
We were shocked to hear the news. We moved to Norfork 3 years ago in June, not knowing anyone, and both Sharon and Archie welcomed us with open arms. We shared many dinners and long afternoons just chatting about anything and everything. Sharon will be missed by all who knew her. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family at this difficult time. We will remember the good times and keep Sharon alive in our hearts.
My heart goes out to Sharons family. I love you all and Sharon is one of my favorite people in the world. She opens her door to anyone. Feeds them delicious food a warm bed if needed and if family can delight you with family history. Also, she gave the best hugs ever. I will miss your sweet smile. Rest in peace Sharon, job well done
