Creta Helen (Hawkins) Sharp, 88, of Miamisburg, Ohio, passed to her heavenly home March 25, 2024 at Hillspring in Springboro, Ohio.
She was born November 6, 1935 to Wilmetta Irby Hawkins and Silas Ernest Hawkins in Rosiclare, Illinois.

She lovingly devoted herself to her family, gladly served her church, Miamisburg Christian Church, while she was able, and was a faithful caretaker to her mother for many years.
