James Sharp Obituary
JB earned his MBA from Emporia State University. He proudly served his country as a veteran of the National Guard before transferring to the United States Navy, where he served for six years. Following his military service, JB built a successful career as an electronics technician with Cargill in Dodge City.
He was a member of the Ransom VFW Post 7972. Though a quiet man by nature, JB was known by those closest to him as highly intelligent, quick-witted, and possessing a wonderful sense of humor that left a lasting impression.
JB is survived by his three sisters, Barbara Clark (Raymond) of Burrton, Kansas, Victoria Bauer of Hutchinson, Kansas, and Kathrine Bauer of Hutchinson, Kansas; along with many beloved nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Patricia and John "Del" Bauer; his father, Jim Sharp; and his sister, Lisa Sharp.
Cremation has taken place, and memorial services will be held at a later date.
Memorial contributions may be made to the James Sharp Funeral Fund in care of Fitzgerald Funeral Home.
