From Lynn Corum:

Sunday, Feb. 6
I've known Sharon for just over a year, and based on the wonderful comments from her long-time friends, I've missed out on what could have been a much longer and enriching friendship. We saw the latest Harry Potter movie together at Fox on Jan. 14 and talking afterward when I told her I was having an informal reading of two of my short plays on Jan. 17 she said she wanted to sit in. I was delighted, she came, and her criticism was truthful and spot-on. I was so impressed with her insight. Then and there I decided she would be invited to all my playreadings. How could I have known she would be gone by the coming weekend. Friends of Sharon's quality are so rare.
