Sharon. Mom.  Mommy.  Mammaw.  Red.  She carried me for nine months, gave birth to me as well as my two two sisters.  She was my inspiration.  She made so many sacrifices throughout her life.  She taught me how to laugh.  She taught me how to overcome.  She taught me to respect people.  She showed me how to treat women.  She wasn’t pretentious, she wasn’t afraid to admit her weaknesses.  She was genuine.  She was a great encourager.  She was my number one fan.  We were as close as a mother and son could be.  On November 12, 2009 I didn’t just lose my mom, I lost a friend.  Nine Mother’s Day holidays have passed and my heart still hurts.  I miss you momma!  You made me the man I am.  Thank you for everything!  I love you!
