Please read the following note from Rev. Allison. Maureen will ring the bells at Kilbride United Church at 2:00 p.m. this afternoon June 30, 2022 to proclaim the life of our dear friend Sharon Banks. “Well done, good and faithful servant”. Sharon took this mantle and made a difference where ever she went.

Dear friends

At 10:50, Sharon Banks’ Spirit was released from her body. It is done. Beautiful heart full farewells from family. She is with God and her beloved Ken. Peace be with her and with all of you as we grieve this parting.

We are assured that we shall meet again within the heart of God – with Jesus walking with us and the Holy Spirit to guide us.

Tomorrow when you see the fireworks remember Sharon and her magnificent passion for life.

Blessings my friends. Allison

Listen to the exhortation of the dawn!
Look to this day! For it is life,
the very life of life.
In its brief course lie all the verities
and realities of your existence.
The bliss of growth, the glory of action,
The splendor of beauty;
For yesterday is but a dream,
And tomorrow is only a vision;
But today well lived makes every yesterday
a dream of happiness,
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well therefore to this day!
Such is the salutation of the dawn.
