Our good friend and uncle, Garold “Doc” Sharp passed away today. We have wonderful memories of him and are grateful that he was a part of our lives!
Garold is the first person I ever heard speak about the power of the subconscious mind. I remember sitting in our living room listening to the conversation that Garold, Audrie and my parents were having about that subject. And even though I didn’t really catch the details, I did catch the idea that it was a significant and important concept, so that when I heard it again many, many years later, it really grabbed my attention.
Here is the obituary that was published in the Salt Lake Tribune on Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010:
