  4. I wanted to express my heartfelt condolences to all of Sharon’s family. For right now, there’s no detour around grief, no shortcut through mourning. However, 2 Cor.4:7 says that God can give us, ‘… power beyond what is normal…’, to go from one day to the next. This does not mean that we no longer cry or that we forget. It means we recover. We recover because of our hope. Jesus Christ talked about our hope in John 5:28 which says, ‘… all those in the memorial tomb will hear his voice and come out…’. Jesus was referring to the resurrection. That is our amazing hope! The Bible likens our hope to an anchor. Just like an anchor stabilizes a ship, our hope stabilizes us and keeps us from drowning in overwhelming sadness. One way that God comforts us today is by moving people who care about us to give us words of encouragement that we need to hear. May the God of comfort be your comfort now, during this time of sorrow. For the Bible’s answers to life’s big questions please visit JW.org.

  5. Sharon was a caring, giving and humorous person. She was also one of the most hard-working, intelligent and loyal employees I’ve known. She will be greatly missed and fondly remembered.
