Sharon was born on January 2, 1952, in Columbus, Georgia, to Dallas Junior Sellers and Mary Glenn Johnston. A devoted caregiver and compassionate soul, Sharon dedicated 54 years of her life to the nursing profession as a Registered Nurse, touching countless lives through her work and kindness.

Throughout her remarkable career, Sharon cared for patients in Alaska, Kentucky, Enterprise, Dothan, and Fort Rucker. Her commitment to excellence and genuine concern for others earned her numerous honors and recognition over the years. Nursing was not just her profession, it was her calling.

Beyond her work, Sharon embraced life with joy and laughter. She loved dancing, singing, traveling, joking, and fishing, and she never missed a chance to share a smile. One of her fondest memories was going to Hawaii for her 25 wedding anniversary, and seeing all the western national parks, and visiting New York. She had a special affection for her dolls and flowers, but nothing delighted her more than Christmas, which she cherished with childlike wonder and heartfelt enthusiasm.

Above all else, Sharon believed in being good to everybody. Her kindness, warmth, and generous spirit left a lasting impression on all who knew her. She will be remembered for her laughter, her compassion, and the love she so freely gave.

Her legacy lives on in the many lives she healed, helped, and inspired.
