Ugh I don't know what to say. Sharon was my grandma and I love her so much she was so supportive of everything I ever wanted to do even when it was wrong. I have a bad past and she even supported me then. I'm sorry grandma but I'm better now I love you and miss you dearly. I'll never forget you and I will see you again.....
