Sharon was always on the go, always smiling and always had time to stop and chat. She was a ray of sunshine on our touchline and we will always be one short now that she has left us. Some people have said that they will never see her again but have a look at her children Meg, Olivia and Tom and you will still see sharon- the smiles, the mannerisms and the way all 3 have grown in to lovely human beings- a pleasure to know and to be around. Tom- don't worry about getting to your football matches- you have an extended family here and we will always look out for you. Pete- hope you are soon on the mend and helping me to take the nets down at the end of matches. To all of you I offer my sincere condolences and very best wishes. Sharon- thank you for touching all of our lives. God bless.
