Sharon Louise Inman

Sharon Louise Inman, age 76 of Hamilton, OH, passes away on Friday, August 9th, 2019. Sharon was born May 21st, 1943 in Ashland KY, was a beloved wife (of the late James Inman), daughter (of late Kenneth and Dorothy Paul), sister (of the late Kenneth Paul and Norma Early), cousin, friend, coworker and of course, aunt (of Rodney Early, the late Kenny Early, Aaron Paul, Dara Paul, Kimberly Early, Brandie Early, Oliver Hallene, Thea Hallene, Spence Inman, Todd Inman, Allison Inman, and Caroline, Dawit, Savannah, Sarah Jane and Susannah Inman).

Aunt Sharon. She was sweet and kind and giving and wonderful person. Remembered fondly for her speed walking. Usually speed-walking to buy much-loved gifts for her many nieces and nephews (perhaps even the eighth replacement of the same broken toy). Even into her 70’s she would outpace the rest of us with fervor. She toiled endlessly to care for everyone else: tidying up, scrubbing dishes, cutting hair. Did she ever relax? We all seem to remember her taking a moment here and there, but, more often than not only because her mother, brother or sister insisted she sit down for a minute. She was a ball of energy bouncing around, and she gave all that energy to her family. She made all their lives better. Her life, was about her family member’s lives. It seems like a great unkindness by the universe that over the last two years Sharon lost her baby brother Kenny Paul, her nephew Kenny Early, her sister-in-law Norma Inman, and most recently in just a week’s time her husband Jim and her younger sister Norma Early. She lost so many of the people she cared so much for, for so long and loved with all her heart. However, those friends and family that live on will carry her generosity and love with them and at their best, pass it on to everyone they cross paths with.
