Sheila Tharp’s Celebration of Life and Cremation

On October 14th, 2021 at 5:43am, Sheila Lynn Tharp (Kaylor) took her last breath here on earth and entered into the gates of Heaven to meet our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Although it is never easy to lose a loved one, today we rest easy in knowing that Sheila is finally at peace and no longer suffering. Sheila’s passing comes unexpectedly after suffering a massive heart attack on Tuesday October 5th. She fought a hard battle but ultimately her frail body just couldn’t surpass the damage that had been done to her and she passed surrounded by her daughters in hospice care. It is with great sorrow that her three daughters; Kimberly Ann, Nicole Lynn and Melanie Michelle have to pull together during this time and try to plan a fabulous celebration of life to give her the respect and honor that Sheila deserves.

Sheila loved sunflowers and just being around those she loved most. She was a mother, grandma and great grandma to many, as well a sister, friend and lover to Rick. She was such a carefree spirit and always had a smile on her face as she ran the roads of California, Ohio which she was so proud to call home for so many years of her life. As her first granddaughter, I can honestly say that there was never a November 26th I didn’t receive a “Happy Birthday, Heather” phone call! She definitely a lover and proud of her family.

We are asking if you knew Sheila or anyone that she may have held dear to her heart and you are able and willing, donations are very much needed and appreciated so that we can plan to give Sheila and those who love her, a proper time to say their respects and goodbyes.

As of now arrangements for the Celebration of Life Ceremony for Sheila are to take place on Saturday November 6, 2021, time to be determined at St. Jerome Hall on Kellogg Ave.

In advance we thank you for all the prayers and kindness during this difficult time. Please continue to keep the family members and friends of Sheila in our thoughts and prayers over this next season of their lives as they adjust to a new season where they may reach for the memories they are so lucky to have shared here on earth with Sheila.
