Born on February 26, 1937, in Platte City, Missouri, Sharon was the daughter of Walter "Sport" and Thelma Clements. She graduated from Platte County High School in 1955 and remained deeply connected to her hometown throughout her life.

A woman of deep faith, Sharon was a dedicated member of the First Christian Church of Platte City, MO. Here she found fellowship, purpose, and comfort throughout her life.

Sharon's home was a gathering place-always open-a place of comfort, laughter, and meals shared together. One of the most distinctive features of her home was her remarkable collection of lamps, hundreds collected over the years, which became a cherished and unforgettable part of her home.

Above all else, Sharon cherished her family. Her greatest joy came from loving them deeply and unconditionally. Her legacy lives on in the hearts of those who knew her warmth, kindness, and unwavering devotion.
