From George Criswell

Some of the more memorable moments I can think of right off was our sharing of food tastes.  Coming from the south it was funny how Sharon and I came to find ourselves really loving a lot of foods together.  One I recall for sure was back in the day when we went to Vinny Testa's in Natick.  Not sure how I got her to do it but all of a sudden she started trying the baked garlic cloves they served in olive oil.  Next thing I know she was wanting her entire half a garlic clove for her own.  Yep we both reeked for days after those visits.  Now I wonder if it impacted her choice of guys?  :) Another really cool one was after we got my mother's recipe for lemon ice box pie.  I remember feeling really good when she tried it and then started craving it so much.  lol  She was hooked and it made me feel great about her loving my mother's home made pie recipe as mom always did everything from scratch.

Another memorable moment was when my grandsons came up for the wedding and the way Sharon took right up with the both of them.  They also fell in love with her immediately because she had a great way with kids.   They just got attracted to her so fast as was the case with Jeremiah who we both grew really fond of.  He was hooked on her as well.

I always counted on her for shopping for your gifts at Christmas time and that was the one time of year we always teamed up together on a mission and probably talked more than we did the whole year because it was all about what mom wanted or what mom needed.  She always had the inside track on everything mom needed as she kept mental notes on it all.

I miss her.
