Location: Haskell, Ok | Sharon was such an awesome lady. I hadn't spoken with her in 3 years! Recently JUST 3 days ago.. we reconnected on facebook. I am so thankful I took the time to message her and SAY HEY REMEMBER ME? Her answer was.. "Why yes of course I do, how could I not remember your smiling face!?" We caught up about horses, good times, and the bad times.
When I was younger, growing up in a non horsey family, I turned to Sharon for many questions. I owe her alot for all the knowledge she just willing gave to me. I know I am not the only one that she has helped. We can all see she has influenced SO many others in this horse world that she loved so much.
Sharon was SUPER excited about Kinder though. She told me that she just loved it there! The great cajun food and the casinos... It was a special place to her. How ironic ...is very true.
We already miss you girlfriend! My prayers go out to Kelly, Mike, family, and close friends. In times like these it is so hard on everyone when someone is taken so suddenly when we least expect it.
Everything happens for a reason and I know she was put in my life for one. |

Location: Cap't Shakira the Dagger | Hey guys. It will probably be Monday before Mike can get her released, what with all the different laws in La. I really don't look to know any plans till sometime on Monday. But I will try to update ASAP.......................................There is so much I want to say, and it won't come out. One thing I can say is, to all of you: Let your words be kind to one another, you never know when they will be your last. |

Location: Florida, the land of horses and sunshine(usually!) | I am heartsick after reading this. A mutual friend here in Florida called me this morning and told me what happened. I bought a horse from Sharon many years ago when I lived up in Ct. She was absolutely one of the nicest people I ever met. A friend had come down with me to try out horses and Sharon put her on her good horse to ride while we rode together. My friend liked the horse, and about a year later Sharon had decided to move back to La. to be by family. She called me in Ct. and told me she couldn't bring all the horses to La. , and asked me to tell my friend that the horse she had ridden was for sale...and was she interested. She was, and went left the following week in my truck and trailer to come down and get him. As we arrived in Fl., the truck transmission decided to only have first and second gear. We "limped" to the motel for the night. Sharon was an angel...got me all hooked up with the best garage to deal with. My friend rented a car and went to the East Coast to see her parents, rather than sit around and wait. Sharon worked a regular job at the time, and when she got out of work she came and got me at the motel and brought me to her place to stay. I had not told my husband what happened, and was determined not to until we got back home to Ct. He would have worried to death. Sharon helped me make the right decisions about the truck....she fought for me with the local dealership about the warrantee...The parts had to be ordered, and her garage was ready and waiting to fix the truck, rather than wait for the dealership. She convinced them to pay her garage for the work under the warrantee. She was such a blessing to me on that trip. I can still remember her arm around me and the big hug I got when I wimped out about the whole thing and cried. She could make any situation seem trivial. We reconnected when she began selling the Oxy products, and then again on Facebook a few months ago. She asked if I was going to the show in Perry in the hopes we could meet up again. I am heartbroken I did not have that opportunity to see her again. Rest in peace, my friend. You will be sadly missed. Prayers and hugs to Mike. |

Location: Tn | Keke can you post a link for the fund so others will be able to contribute in honor of Sharon in her memory.
Some say they can not imagine what her friend felt like when she woke up. I was with my FIL when he had a massive heart attack in the field as we were getting hay. We were too far out for cell service and the ambulance took 30 minutes. There was only one other person with us. I spent the 30 minutes in the field alone with him trying to keep him alive, while the other fellow waited at the road for the ambulance. For months his face and look when he took his last breath was embedded in my head. I have never cried so much and carried anger around. I wondered why, why I had to be there, why I had to see. She will be in my prayers, it is so hard to go through. It was later God final gave me the answers. But the pain was tremendous my FIL was the only father I ever really knew.
Sharon was a true friend to so many where they had not felt this before. Our time was short with her, but we feel blessed to have had it. Continued prayers |

Location: Hernando, Ms | This is so sad. Sharon helped me a lot with my horses last summer over the phone. I even bought one of her Caldwell saddles last spring in hopes that it would fit my mare. I met her a couple of year ago at race in Tunica, Ms. She was so nice to talk with and very helpful. She will be missed by so many. |

Good Morning all, I too was so shocked to hear of Sharon's passing, she was a friend of mine and I bought a horse from her years ago.
I have seen the posts where Mike said Sharon would have liked donations in her name to go to the Justin Cowboy Crisis Fund, that sure meant a lot to me since I am the Program Manager for the Fund.
If you would like to make a donation in Sharon's name go to:
www.justincowboycrisisfund.org
On the page you can print out a form and mail it in with a check or donate online via paypal. Please email me with any questions at jccfinfo@prorodeo.com. I will make sure Mike gets notification of all who donate.
RIP Sharon, you will be missed, prayers for Mike and all of her family and friends.
