Sharon Harp
September 14, 1946 ~ March 29, 2023
Sharon Kay Harp passed away on Wednesday, March 29, 2023, at the age of 76. Sharon was born on September 14, 1946, in San Antonio, Texas to Ray and Billie Simons.
Sharon is preceded in death by her husband, Don Harp; parents; and brothers, Ronald Simons and Russell Simons. Sharon is survived by her children, Kimberly Feneley and her life partner, Trent Graham, and Scott Thormann and his wife, Rebecca; her 3 grandchildren, Leah and husband, Gabriel, Logan and his partner, Maddie, and Lucas. Sharon is also survived by her nieces Cindy Roller, Tammy McKown, Wanda Dyal, Ronda Simons, and Keri King, as well as numerous Grand Nieces and Nephews and her loyal companions, Baci and Buffy.
Sharon had a love for life and her family, which was only surpassed by her love for the Lord’s only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. She spent many days deep in the Bible’s scriptures, spreading the Word and love of God to others through her various daily devotionals and years of service to the church and Legacy Christian Academy. Sharon was an avid enjoyer of many crime television programs, always lending a hand to her on-screen detectives, helping them get to the bottom of the case they were working on; this unrelenting sense of justice also parlayed into her professional life, with over three decades of dedicated service to the San Antonio Police Department, alongside her husband and daughter.
Sharon’s unyielding love did not stop with her Lord and family, as she also had a lifelong passion for her furry friends. Sharon never met a dog she didn’t love nor one that didn’t love her, and through the years, she welcomed many animals into her warm and happy home. Oftentimes, she was known to feed and care for several strays, treating them as her own for as long as they chose to stay, which at times would turn her abode into their furever homes.
Sharon never liked to say good-bye; at the end of phone calls and conversations, she would say “Good night” even with the sun shining bright, because she felt good-bye was a bit too final for her liking. Although Sharon’s time with us has come to a pause, it will not be a good-bye, as her everlasting warmth and radiance lives on through the lessons she taught and memories she created with her friends and family, who will one day join her at the Lord’s side.
Graveside services will be held at 11:00 AM on Tuesday, April 4, 2023 located at Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery.

I had the pleasure to meet Sharon once. She is a Wonderful lady and funny, what I hear she had a lovely heart and personality. My prayers go out to the family.
When I think about Mrs Harp I remember so many things. Like how much she loved tomatoes and onions and dill pickle chips. I remember she had a love/hate relationship with her curly hair. That sketchers tennis shoes were her favorite. I remember how she laughed with all the elementary students and still tried to play tag with them. I remember how much she loved her family. Her children and her grandchildren. We talked every day about them. They were her pride and joy. When they had triumphs or victories she beamed with joy. And if they had struggles or pain she bowed her knees and cried out to God on their behalf. Most of all I remember how much she loved Jesus. She wasn’t a blameless saint, no one is, and she would be the first to admit that, but the center of all our conversations over the years were about Jesus. We shared scripture together, prayed together, and even disagreed a time or two. But we always agreed on the unmeasurable, unwavering love of our Lord. I remember one of her sincerest desires was that her loved ones come to know the goodness of God as she had. Mrs Harp was a giver. If she had a dollar in her pocket and you needed it, it was yours. Mrs Harp was loyal. If she loved you, no one could say an ill word against you. Mrs Harp was loving. She gave the best hugs. Mrs Harp was my friend. For the years that the Lord gave us together she knew all my failures and all my fears and always prayed me through them. Until Heaven becomes both our homes, I will miss my friend.
