Sharon was the beloved wife of Chris Sumter, the love of her life, whom she met 33 years ago. Their 26 years of marriage were filled with love, laughter, and unwavering support for one another. Together, they had two boys: Logan, and Carson, who were the pride and joy of Sharon’s life. Together they welcomed with open arms their son Zach.

An incredible mother, Sharon dedicated her life to her family, always putting their needs before her own. Even on her way to the hospital, she was concerned about ensuring her son had the washer and dryer he needed for his new home, exemplifying her selflessness and commitment to her loved ones.

Sharon is survived by her husband, Chris, her three children, Zach (and fiancée Najia), Logan, and Carson, her brother John Paul (JP), his wife Crystal, and their son Tristen. She also leaves behind numerous cousins and a wide circle of loving friends who became her extended family.
