What can we say about Sharon Sherman Nixon? That fun loving, scary movie – Lifetime watching, jewelry, cd, dvd collecting, six inch nails wearing, old school electric slide dancing, spade playing, Beautiful, Wonderful, Awesome, Sweet Woman. She loved to Laugh, She loved to Eat, She loved to Shop – That was our Beloved Sharon.

Who else knew how to call their own home phone, from their upstairs bedroom, and request delicacies (potatoes & onions & salad, to name a few) or just to ask, "what y'all down there doing?"

Sharon loved her grandchildren. She was known for her special boxes filled with candy, toys, books, dvds, cds, kitchen gadgets – whatever she thought you could use. Sharon Nixon you were a Joy…..
