Thomas Randolph: The Full Story Of The Black Widower

Sharon was born Sharon Price on November 6th, 1950 in New York.

Her parents were Jean and Robert Price, and she had two brothers, Carl and Robert.

In 1970, Sharon married William Metcalf.

Sharon also became a mother.

Her daughter, Colleen, was the only child she had.

Colleen described her early years, "I grew up in New Jersey, just me and my mom.

She took good care of me.

It was hard in Jersey.

It was hard, just me and my mom, and not a lot of help." Sharon trained at beauty school, earned her license, and became a hairdresser.

Colleen said her mother was the only person who had ever cut her hair.

In search of better work, Sharon moved to Las Vegas in 1977.

In 1978, she married for a second time to Philippe Cosse.

That marriage later came to an end, though the public record doesn't say when.

Sharon worked in a hair salon, and it was there that she met a fellow hairdresser named Alice Wolfe, who became one of her closest friends.

Alice described her as someone who made people laugh, saying, "She would say the funniest things, and she was just so down-to-earth.

I just loved that about her." Over the years, her daughter, Colleen, grew up, married Michael Bayer, and started a family of her own.

By the mid-2000s, Sharon was in her 50s and settled in the city.

It was then that she met Thomas Randolph.

Sharon met Thomas online through the dating website match.com. Thomas was about four years younger than her.

He lived in Utah, where he had spent most of his life.

He went by Tom, and Sharon called him Tommy.

Colleen remembered the first time her mother showed her a photograph of the man she had been talking to.

In the picture, Thomas was sitting on a motorcycle with long, curly hair.

Colleen said she looked at the photograph and teased her mother about how he looked, but Sharon was happy.

Colleen said simply, "She just fell in love with him." The relationship moved quickly.
