EDITOR'S NOTE:  Sharon Dean has been an intregal part of the NC Agribusiness Council team since 2002.  As a graphic designer, she has been the "go to" person for any graphic element the Council needed. In fact, Sharon created almost 100% of the Council's graphic work that you have seen over the past 10 years, including the current logo for the Council and every graphical element you see on the Council's website today, material emailed to you (AgNews/Daily AgPost) as well as printed materials for NCAg annual events such as AgDay at the Capitol and the AgLeaders Conference.  Sharon will be sorely missed for her professional attitude and creative spirit...but most of all she will be missed for her kindness and for being a genuinely nice person.  Please join me in sending thoughts and prayers to the family of Sharon, who passed away much too soon.
