About

Forever Loving Sharon

Dr. Sharon L. Jackson was born in the "Windy City", Chicago, Illinois on a lovely fall day.  She was an excellent student and she was in turn an excellent teacher.

Sharon attended John D. Shoop Elementary School, Morgan Park High School (both in Chicago, IL), The University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa, and finally, Wayne State University School of Medicine.

Sharon's career path included: Cytology, Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Fraud Specialist for J. P. Morgan Chase .  Every task that Sharon put her hands to was done with excellence.

If anyone loved life, it was Sharon.  She loved extravagantly, gave generously, worked and played hard and fair, and she forgave quickly.  Sharon modeled what it really means to be a Christian.

Her eyes were kind, her were words encouraging, and her smile was beautiful, captivating the attention and hearts of those in her presence.  And though her time on earth seemed far too brief for those of us who loved her, we are most grateful that we were blessed to have had her in our lives at all.  She will forever remain in our hearts and minds, and one day...we will see her again, more alive and beautiful than ever!

Memories

thankful

Cia Nov 15, 2009

I still find it difficult to get my arms around the fact that this time last year, I was sitting next to you at the Thanksgiving dinner table. You looked so good. you were your normal soft-spoken, yet still hilarious self. When I think of the things for which I am thankful, your presence in my life will be one of those things. You might have been my aunt, but you were also my sister, my confidante and my friend. While I miss you beyond comprehension, it's a comfort to know that you are resting in the arms of your Heavenly Father. It's my desire to live for the Lord not only to rejoice with Him in eternity, but to see you again as well. Thank you for your example and strength, Frall. You are truly one of a kind.

love,

Missing My Encourager

Tiffany Scott Oct 21, 2009

Days like today, I would go to my phone and find a message from Sis. Sharon. I can still hear her say "Sister Tiff, watch what God is going to do!" Missing her dearly, but praising God for her rest.

My memory

Margaret Howell Oct 13, 2009

It's not birthdays or holidays when I miss Frally. I feel her absence when Ive had a Spritual Breakthrough, have done something totally stupid (smile), or have new "Little Man" or Hannah and Courtney stories.

There are times when I just shake my head in disbelief that she is not just a phone call away. My heart breaks all over again.

BUT! I know that God is faithful. He promised that He would heal her and He did just that!

See you on the other side Frall!

Love you more every single day!

Your First Birthday in Heaven

letusbake Sep 14, 2009

I have tried to close my eyes and imagine you dancing and worshiping God in heaven. That image helps my heart in those moments when your absence can be felt and heard by the deafening silence left by what would have been laughter and the abudant joy that you possessed. This year, there are no cards to buy for you, no cake to bake, no thunderous laughter from celebrating with you. Just silence and deep gratitude that you accomplished your greatest goal...to make it to your eternal home, heaven! So...at least I can say congratulations on your first birthday in heaven. God's grace has helped us to make it through the day, even as we remembered you and silently wished that we could have had one more birthday to share with you.
Lovingly you always,
Bab
