Marjorie Ann Sharp

Marjorie Ann Sharp, 86, passed from this life on December 31, 2018, at her home in Cleveland, Oklahoma.

Marjorie was born on February 4, 1932, in Leroy, Oklahoma. Marjorie was the daughter of Everett Leo and Ardelia Ann (Cannaday) McLeister. Marjorie attended school in Leroy and at the age of 10 moved with her parents to Sand Springs. Marjorie completed her education and graduated from Sand Springs High School. Following high school, Marjorie was united in marriage to Donald Edward Sharp on July 8, 1951, at the First Assembly of God Church in Sand Springs. The couple established their initial home in Sand Springs before moving to Tulsa in 1954. In 2007, Marjorie and Don returned to Cleveland. Marjorie worked at several places throughout her life as a secretary and later worked as a legal assistant at Barber and Bartz for over 20 years when she retired in 2004.

Needlepoint and cross-stitch was a craft that Marjorie loved doing. She was also an avid reader of John Grisham and Danielle Steel books. Marjorie had a library card from Sand Springs for many years and during that time has read more than 4000 books. Marjorie also had a knack for writing poetry. She would recall during her time growing up of climbing into a tree and reading all day until her parents would come to get her. Taking vacations was something she also enjoyed. Going to Branson and Eureka Springs going shopping was always an enjoyable time. Marjorie would always take side jobs as her children were growing up to make sure they had a vacation. The trips would always be to Six Flags in Arlington, Texas and staying at the same motel for eleven years straight. Marjorie was a faithful member of the Assemblies of God Church for many years. She was currently a member of the Prattwood Assembly of God Church in Sand Springs. Marjorie also loved being around her family especially her grandchildren whenever possible.
