From Roberta Edgar:

Sharon Gilbert was one of the smartest, most talented, and generous women I've ever met. She lived to be of service to others, and because of her expertise in certain areas she was able to do so exceedingly well, and to the benefit of all those who knew her.

The last time I heard from her, about two weeks ago, her parting thoughts were concern for my well being.

It is interesting to learn of the website she was planning to construct--The Next Level. A couple of years ago, she and I were planning to create a website for our writing services. Her friend, Jess, had suggested using a design of a high-rise building with an exterior elevator that takes the visitor to a different service on each succeeding level.

One way or another, Sharon has reached her highest level, and it is safe to say she will be finding new ways up there to put her knowledge and humanity to good use.

Wherever you are, Sharon, know you are loved and missed.
