    I’ll always remember Sharon’s voice on the phone, she was on the network support team at SRP helping fellow employees with computer security issues. She was always so helpful and quick to resolve any problems. What a great gal she was; she will be missed.

    Sharon and I became good friends when she started working contract for Payroll @ SRP and then eventally became a permanent employee. Sharon gifted me the sweetest little dog I ever loved, Little Emmy. I remember all the laughs in payroll and the lunch hours that we shared. After Sharon moved to Pine, I enjoyed visiting her there. I know how much she loved that area. Sharon will be missed, she was a delightful, intelligent person who was always interesting to be around. My condolances to you and Brian and your entire family.

    I worked with Sharon in the IT Dept. of SRP, and then later was surprised to learn she had moved to Pine where we had retired a few years earlier. In addition we both worked for Prudential in the Pine/Payson area. I am extremely sorry to learn of her passing. We were away at the time and upon learning of this, we were just shocked. Our condolences go out to all the family members, some of which we had visited with during the last ten years or so. Rest in Peace.
