Thank you, ES. Sharon-Gay and I were pleasant acquaintances, not really close, but she touched many lives on Holy Hill and it was always a joy to see her. I learned of her death on facebook and wanted to honor her memory.
And she was an active Episcopalian and member of the diocesan Altar Guild.
She was registrar at the Graduate Theological Union, my doctoral institution in Berkeley, and was immeasurably kind to hundreds of harried and broke graduate students. She also loved cats and had a door covered with pictures of them -- her own and the cats of others.
Thank you, Paul. May Sharon rest at last, and rise in glory in Godde's time.
The views expressed on this blog are solely those of the blogger and do not represent the positions of any group or organization with which he may be affiliated. As one who spent decades stuffing down his opinions and emotions, I am inclined to cut loose here, which I believe is healthy, honest, and part of the process of sanctification in the long run. Politics and spirituality mingle freely here, along with theatre reviews, photography, and passionate talk about food, literature, and the human journey. If anything written here offends you, please find other blogs to read. I am here to share, not to do battle.

I can well imagine the impact Sharon-Gay had on graduate students. She was large-hearted and seemed to me unflappable. Good qualities in a registrar.
Prayers ascending!
