In Memoriam Sharon Herzog 1943-2004

It is with great sadness that we must inform you that Sharon Herzog passed away unexpectedly, but peacefully, at home on March 6, 2004 with her husband and daughter at her side.

Sharon was not only our dearest friend and colleague, but also a dear friend to those hundreds of admirers of José Carreras around the world who had come to know and love her through her mailing list.

None of us will ever forget Sharon's wonderful sense of humour, her boundless energy, and above all, her great kindness and generosity of spirit. All our lives are immeasurably richer for having known her.
