Sharon Lawrence Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jan. 19, 2024.
Sharon Therese Lawrence (nee Crane), 70, of Clarksville, GA, passed away peacefully on January 16, 2024 at Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville. She was born on June 26, 1953, in Dearborn, Michigan. Sharon was a kind, generous, loving, and inspirational woman who will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Sharon is survived by her mother, Joan Crane; her sons, Victor Lawrence and David Lawrence; her sister, Bridget (Dale) Fox; her brother, Stephen; her nieces, Brittany Fox, Elizabeth Fox, Courtney (Brian) Champion, and Caitlyn Crane; her nephew, Connor (Laikyn) Crane; and her friends, Gregory Dibble and Suany Latty. She was preceded in death by her father, Bud Crane, and her brothers, Brian Crane and Thomas Crane.

Sharon attended Farmington High School in Farmington, Michigan, and later pursued higher education at Northwestern Michigan College. She dedicated over 15 years of her career as a sales associate at Belk. Sharon was also an active member of the Clarksville Lions Club.

St. Mark's Catholic Church in Clarksville, GA, held a special place in Sharon's heart as her place of worship. She found solace and community in her faith.

In her free time, Sharon loved the outdoors and enjoyed fishing and hiking whenever possible. She was also an artist who enjoyed creating, particularly through scrapbooking and crafting. She had a talent for writing, especially poetry. Sharon cherished the moments spent with her family. She loved a big family dinner or traveling to Northern Michigan to be with her mother, siblings, nieces, nephew and the cousins. Traverse City and the Upper Penninsula were two of her favorite places.

A Celebration of Life mass will be held at 11:00AM on Tuesday, January 23, 2024, at St. Mark's Catholic Church, located at 5410 GA-197, Clarksville, GA 30523. Visitation with the family will begin at 10:00 before mass. An additional service and her burial will be scheduled in Michigan at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to St. Mark's Catholic Church or your local Hospice in Sharon's memory.

May her soul rest in peace, and may her memory be a blessing to all who knew and loved her.

Sharon, I always enjoyed the time we spent together in prayer group and sharing our faith. I loved seeing your smiling face when I walked into Belk. Thank you for sharing your faith journey with me and our church family. You will be truly missed.

I can´t believe that she´s not with us any longer. She liked to invite friends over to do crafts, go out to eat and go to the movies. She was so giving that every time someone retired from Belk´s she´d made a Scrapbook for them and she put a lot of time and effort making it special for that person. Kindness, friendship and giving was her way to show she cared. What a loving person! I can see her in Heaven already making friends. I love Sharon and will miss her. May her soul rest in peace. Thank you David for the love you showed for your mother and all you did for her. God bless.

Sharon, Mom and I had a wonderful trip to northern Michigan and the UP. We ate cherries and pasties and drank Dancing Crane coffee. Makes me smile to think about it.
