December 11, 1961 – April 7, 2021
Sharon passed away of natural causes, at her home in Waldorf, MD. She was a native of Louisville, KY and had enjoyed living and working also in South Carolina, North Carolina and Maryland during her life. After attending Eastern H.S, her graduation followed at Central H.S. in Louisville. She followed High School, succeeding in her Paralegal education and certification at Spencerian College. Looking for new challenges, Sharon returned to Spalding University, where she excelled and completed her degree in Occupational Therapy. Sharon loved helping others, and her professionalism and caring as an O.T. was paramount in her happiness. She also proudly volunteered at community sites in Central America and elsewhere during her career.
Sharon was pre-deceased by her Mom and Dad, Dodie and Frank Florence. She is survived by her sister, Lisa (husband-Mike Bloom,) brothers: Brent (Teresa), Steve, and Ran (Susan) Florence. She adored her nieces and nephews: Taylor, John, Matt, Ally, Ava, Xander, Kai, Miles, Sally, Lucy, and Jay, and she always looked forward to time together with her family. Also, we thank Sharon’s Friends in North Carolina and Maryland for their love and support, which was very special in her life.
Sharon will be returning home to Louisville, and a Memorial Service—honoring her life will be a private family memorial. To honor Sharon’s life, memorial donations could be made to any of the following:
