Sharon Charalambous lost her brave 2-year battle with a very rare form of cancer called "Leiomyosarcoma" on April 1, 2010.  We honored Sharon with her husband Harry, and their children Jonathon and Samantha last year.  During Sharon's cancer struggle, they were forced to declare bankruptcy becasue fo the enormous financial strain of her care and funds from our outing helped them immensely
