Sharon was born in Oak Grove, Louisiana, on January 30, 1949, a daughter of the late Clint Thomas French and the late Charlyne Shepherd French. For the past eight years, she and her husband Ken have resided in Young Harris, moving here from Mississippi. Sharon was a good wife and mother, and her husband's best friend.

Always faithful to her church at First Baptist Church of Blairsville, where she was a member, Sharon loved to worship God with her brothers and sisters in Christ. For the past three years, Sharon displayed incredible strength as she battled cancer. Besides her parents, Sharon had a daughter, Shelley Lynn Sandefur, and a sister, Mickey French Long, who also preceded her in death.
