Letha Evelyn Sharp

Letha Evelyn Sharp, 78, of Farmington, Ark., passed away Sunday, Aug. 4, 2019, in Fayetteville, Ark.

She was born Feb. 11, 1941, in Prairie Grove, Ark., the daughter of Herman Isaac and Neva Ruth (Barnes) McMurry. She graduated from Prairie Grove High School in 1959 and attended the University of Arkansas.

She loved her family, especially her great-grandchildren. She loved to go and see and do things.

Many of the trips she and Lee took involved “shortcuts” that added time instead of saving time. She loved flowers and soft easy music. She was sharp of mind and even sharper of wit. She loved her bus driving days and taking care of all “her” kids. She loved telling people internationally she was from Hogeye Arkansas. She loved her ham radio days where she talked to and helped people all over the world, including one on a sinking ship off the coast of South America. She is loved and will be missed very much.

She was preceded in death by her parents; a brother, Michael Herman McMurry; and a niece, Angela McMurry Scott.

She is survived by her husband, Herbert Leroy “Lee” Sharp; two sons, Steven Lee Sharp and his wife Dava and Gary Neil Sharp and his wife Thongsouk; grandchildren, Christopher Lee Sharp and his wife Misti and Anthony Neil Sharp and his wife Maria; three great-grandchildren, Orion, Carinae and Isaiah; one brother, Leonard Patrick “Mac” McMurry and his wife Glenda; three sisters, Wilda McMurry, Nova Phillips and her husband Paul, Colleen McMurry Hillman and her husband Gus; and several nieces and nephews

Funeral service was held 11 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 7, 2019, at Luginbuel Chapel in Prairie Grove. Burial was in the Prairie Grove Cemetery with no graveside service.
