Sharon Bradley Obituary

Sharon Anne Carpenter Bradley December 27, 1948- April 20, 2024

We could shed tears because you are gone, or we can smile because you lived. We could close our eyes and pray that you will come back, or we can open our eyes and see all that you left for us. Our hearts could be empty because we can't see you, or we can be filled with the love you shared. We could turn out back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or we can be happy for tomorrow because of our yesterdays with you. We could remember only that you are gone, or we can cherish your memory and let it live on. we could cry and close our minds and feel empty, or we can do what you would have us to do. Smile. open our hearts Love and be kind to one another...and go on. Love abounds Sister, because you made it so.
