Sharmine was well known and loved by many, and she will be missed by her family and friends. She always had the greatest sense of humor, she always knew how to put a smile on your face, and that’s why she was so unique and special to all. Her favorite phrase ”This is madness" LOL. Those who knew her well would know. Her adaptable personality made her one of the best bartenders at the sandbar. We will really miss her dearly as she rests in peace.
A viewing will take place from 3-5 pm. on Wednesday, Oct. 27, at the James Memorial Funeral Home. A memorial service will take place at 2 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 28, at the James Memorial Funeral Home Chapel.
All arrangements are by James Memorial Funeral Home Inc.
