| Beautiful
and Memorable. "I was referred to Sharon by Ft. Snelling as
a possibility to provide music for my father's memorial. Initially
expecting an organist, I was very pleased to learn she was a
pianist! As a family, we wanted more of a setting to celebrate our
dad's life, and keep everything 'light'. Not only did Sharon
understand our needs, she hit the nail right on the head.
Coordinating a memorial from out-of-state is not easy, but Sharon made
this part of the planning effortless. She provided me with
suggestions of the kind of music that she felt would be suitable from my
dad's era, and provided me with a list of other beautiful 'traditional'
selections from which to select from; and she was able to incorporate
some of our suggestions as well. Her professionalism,
communication and follow-through helped to make my dad's service
special, and very meaningful. I just can't thank her enough and
would hire her again in a second. -- Jerri
from Chandler, AZ, 8/19/2011, Memorial Service in Minneapolis, MN
"I
hired Sharon to play at a memorial service for my dad and I wanted 40's
and 50's music, not the traditional somber music, to keep the event
upbeat. That wasn't the easiest mission for her to accomplish, but
accomplish it she did. She came totally prepared with just the kind of
music I was looking for. You know it was great when after the short
service everyone stayed and talked, laughed, and caught up because the
background music was so relaxing and perfect. People didn't want to
leave. That is just how I wanted it. So thank you Sharon. I am so glad I
found you and you were available on such short notice." -- Doreen,

"Thank
you, Sharon. Your kindness and professionalism helped me through
what may be the toughest time in my life; the loss of my mom. You
made everything very easy, even with such short notice, and helped
create the perfect memorial for my mom. I am glad you were
available not only for me and my family, but my mom. I know she
would have been very happy with the music. What a wonderful way to
celebrate her life."
-- Jenny, 1/5/08, Memorial
Service, St. Paul, MN
