Terry, Connie, Cathy and family,
I was heartbroken to learn of the loss of your mother and my dear friend. Sharon was such a special person in my life and I cherish the many memories we shared. I’m sending my most sincere condolences to each of you and I pray you will find peace.
Sharon Parker was a wonderful lady it was my pleasure to work for her for 10 years and I must say that Sharon had a heart of gold and was always willing to help people she was the true definition of a Christian. Miss Parker had a saying “hundred years from now it won’t matter” but Miss Parker I can live to be 100 and I will never forget your kindness and friendship. Rest in peace Sharon
Known to all of us at S.A. as “Ma Parker,” she was a terrific lady. I am very sorry for your loss.
My prayers, thoughts and heart goes out to the whole family. I’m so sorry for your loss but tap dancing with Jesus sounds about right for Meme. I love you all and I’m here if needed. Love y’all, Cheryl Parker
Heartfelt sympathy to you and your whole family✝️ She is at peace now🙏 Thinking of you, Connie , Lots of Love and prayers Eileen
