Sharon Bathurst Obituary
A 1961 graduate of Brush High School, she earned a bachelor's degree from Fenn College, and a master's degree from Lake Erie College. Sharon worked for the Chardon Local School district as a special education teacher.
In retirement, Sharon was a long-time volunteer for the Lake Health hospitals. She enjoyed creating artistic hand-crafted greeting cards. As a lifetime cat lover, she enjoyed the company of her feline companions.
Sharon is survived by her sister Leanne (Dennis) Hamilton of Atlanta, Ga.; daughter Julianne Hammink of Tucson, Ariz., son John Hammink of Mountain View, Calif.; and stepdaughters Shona and Dana Bathurst, of Cleveland. She will be missed by all who loved her.
The family is planning a memorial service for spring, 2016.

So Sharon,
You are probably feasting on Gwack-a-Mole surrounded by your cats, but I hope you remember the wonderful Holiday Family gatherings we shared - exchanging outrageous Christmas gifts, picking Grandpa Harrison's strawberries on the 4th, and rotten tomato fights on Labor Day...
We'll miss them and you.

Sharon was a wonderful person - I will always remember her as "The Little One" - this was an affectionate name Bev Thompson her friend used to call her. Sharon will be missed - God Bless!
