When she would talk to you the Lord would always be mentioned. The last church she called home was the West Terre Haute Assembly Of God. She loved all birds but blue birds were her favorite. She would feed and talk to them setting on her porch and couldn't wait for the eggs to hatch. Sharon was a strong woman who loved her family dearly.

Visitation will be 12:00 noon until service time Thursday.
