"Dear Ketner family, I am saddened to hear of Sharon?s passing. I am out of town for the month or I would have attended her service. Your mom and wife was so good to me and my family. She was always complimentary of our children and I was honored when she asked me to perform some temple work for some of her family members. I know she loves each of you fiercely. I pray you can enjoy happy memories of her. My life is better for having known her. With love and sympathy, Dottie Parson"
