Sharon Hunter

Sharon Lynne Hunter, 57, of Abilene, departed this world on Angel’s wings leaving us to remember these things: her wonderful smile that welcomed all, her pure heart that shined, her loving thoughts and welcoming arms that brightened everyone’s life. Sharon was known to love movies, coloring, and movie star magazines. She had a special love for her dogs, Sonny & Cher, and most of all, Elvis Presley. Sharon will be missed by all who loved her.
