I extend my deepest sympathies to Jerry and your family. I part that God will grant you the strength. My most sincere condolences.

My deepest sympathy goes out to the family of Ms. Andrea. She was like a second mom to me while working with her at Virginia Department of Fire Programs. My heart broke when I heard the news. You will be missed immensely.

My prayers and condolences to the family... Mrs Andrea was a beautiful woman inside and out. Rest easy🙏🏾

To the Sharpe Family: My deepest condolences and prayers to you and your family. Ms. Sharpe was a wonderful caring spirit that brightened many people lives! I am thankful for the many friendly encounters we had at Jay's shop. Stay strong and know that her love will live on Sincerely The Dilworths.

To the Sharpe Family, I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Mrs. Sharpe. She was always so loving, vibrant, beautiful and happy when she visited Westwood to see her granddaughter Ava get baptized, sing, dance and/or participate in worship service. Who knew that my jeweler from years ago is the uncle to one of our youth. Ava, you brought your grandparents much joy! May God continue to bring you comfort and peace during this time. Rev. Jeanette Brown

I grew up with Andrea & her 3 brothers in Jackson Ward, although she has departed this life she lives on in our hearts and minds. May we see her again in our Glory. I want to extend my deepest sympathy and condolences to the family. I see her in Heaven when the Saints go marching in. In the name of God the Father I pray. Dolores E Valentine (Lolo) 1964

She was such a special lady! Always enjoyed talking with her and specially fishing with her! She was a very special lady.

Our MLW Family has lost a good member but our God has added another angel to his kingdom. May God continue to bless all of you. Michael Brown

May God comfort you during this difficult time. ~Connie Morris

To the Sharpe Family...Jerry, Jay and Devron. I pride myself on being a man of God and try everyday to do my best with everyone. My life long prayer has always been for Wisdom and Understanding and GOD has bestowed that gift on me.

However, it's been hard for me as I know for you all, to accept Andrea leaving us. GOD knows best even though I find it difficult to accept. Andrea meant the world to me in so many ways. She was so smart, generous, committed, dynamic and personable to everyone she encountered.

Truly she was special to our Maggie L. Walker High School 'Class of 1965'and to me as our Second (2nd) Vice President. We'll miss her. GOD put her into our lives for a reason. And, I sincerely believe she was an inspiration to all who knew her. I will always consider her GOD's Blessed Angel here on earth.

We were indeed fortunate to have her as you would know best. I'll never forget how much Andrea LOVED you all, her F-A-M-I-L-Y. May GOD restore his Grace upon each and everyone of you. J. Maurice Hopkins

To my other family Jerry, Jay, Devron, Tracey, Yolanda and the grands my heart broke when the family gave me the news of my childhood friend. I am still rocking from the shock, but she is no longer in pain but with her heavenly Father. Our friendship is from childhood and I will truly miss my sister, my friend who always encouraged me. Angel Andrea is now at peace. Love Marcella

Heartfelt sympathy and condolences to the family. May God continue to bless, comfort and lift your spirits during this difficult time. Andrea was a beautiful and spiritual person to all. I will truly miss her. Peace and strength to all of you.

Amanda Robinson-MLW Class of 1965

Andrea was such a vibrant caring person. I am a member of the Trinity Baptist Church Interest Group where Andrea played a very important part to keep this ministry alive. We will miss that infectious smile.

Although Andrea and I didn't see or talk often, whenever we could, we enjoyed talking about our families, especially our grandchildren. She and I have been friends for many years, even prior to our Maggie Walker days. She was always smiling and was such an enthusiastic person. My heart was sadden to learn of her passing. All of her family can cherish the many memories you all shared and remember what a great person your Andrea was. God bless and keep you in his care as you grieve your loss. Verona H. McLeod.

Dear Family, I am shocked and saddened to learn of Andrea's passing. She was a beautiful, vibrant person and I was very fond of her. I extend sympathy, love and prayers during this sorrowful time. Warmly, Sheila Cunningham Price
