She was born Thursday, February 5, 1931, in Leechburg, Pennsylvania, the daughter of Garth and Kathryn Margaret (Campbell) Michael. Sharon had the amazing gift of making people feel comfortable in her presence with a quick smile and warm conversation. She loved to socialize, sass, laugh, and joke and was tough to beat in a spirited game of cards. Sharon was passionate about animals, music, volunteering, reading, and her garden.
