We love and miss you Sharon!Jimmy, Brittany Gemma and Gia Lunsford
I first met my dear friend Sharon at the beginning of my agility training in/around 2000? In 2007 she and I took sibling Border Collies – she had Gabby and I had Dex. Then years of traveling to agility trials in her RV – more stores than I can tell! Sharon was there for me in agility training and in life. My heart is broken, yet at peace knowing she is no longer in pain. I will miss her more than words can say, and love her forever.
John and Sharon were my neighbors growing up. They lived right behind the house I grew up in just north of Tulsa. My brother and I spent countless summer hours with Sharon helping her tend the horses and when all the work was done she taught us how to ride. Sharon and her horses are some of my fondest childhood memories. My thoughts are with the family.
Sharon was our friend, mentor and all round Pal. In 2017, she traveled with us to Seattle in our Caravan of two RV’s–she and her friend DeAn Liles in Sharon’s, and Lynda and I in ours. Along the way we stopped at the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Knabe, Utah where we volunteered to provide cleanup and feeding to several new canine friends within the Sanctuary–a top priority in her “bucket list”. The trip was culminated by a 7 day cruise to Alaska.
Late Thursday afternoon, February 22nd, we bid farewell to her as she laid in her hospital bed in her Claremore home. Joining with us was Pastor Scott from Hospice and one of her kind, friendly caregivers, Ms. Sherry Withers. After a prayer of transition by Pastor Scott, we held her hand to let her know it was okay to go and be with her Lord and that our love would be with her. Tears filled our eyes as we felt her squeeze our hands and, not being able to talk, opened her eyes and moved her lips to say “I love you too”–an expression we often shared with her during her transition time.
God Bless You Dear Friend Sharon–enjoy your well deserved life in Heaven! We will miss you terribly.
Bob and Lynda Portiss
