I am not originally from Macon. I moved here about 22 years ago, but now I really feel a part of this community! The outpouring of love and generosity due to Shon's passing is amazing and my heart is full! Thank you Macon!

For those who don't know, I lost my husband Shon this morning. It was sudden and very devastating. Please understand if I don't reply to messages right away. I appreciate all of your condolences and support.

I am required to publish a paper each week, so please forgive me if this week's paper is not what you expect. My time and heart just isn't in it. I am on my own in this newspaper business.

I will post funeral information as soon as it's available

Shon's best friend started a Go Fund Me page to help with expenses. If you can donate, you will always have my gratitude. If you can't donate, it's completely understandable and I love you all the same. Shon would hate that we are asking for help, but I'm not proud.

Thank you for being Shon's friend and for caring.

Sharon

Everyone, this is Shon, a wonderful husband, the best friend … Mackenzie Richmond needs your support for Support Sharon and Shon : A Memorial Fund for Shon Coram
