When I look back some of my favorite parts of my paths have been made of dirt…The 10+ years I spent delivering direct services to people experiencing homelessness on the street, land and in shelters (while working for Southeast, Inc.) was by far one of my favorite parts of my journey… During this time I met and worked with some amazing human beings…Shari Lymon was one of them…Rest easy my friend now that your earth work is complete…My deepest condolences to the Lymon family…Shari touched many lives…She will be greatly missed.
