Cynthia (Cindy) Gene Sharp was a caring wife, mother, grandmother, sister and friend. She left this world on Feb. 1, 2023.

She was born to Wilma and Gene Snodgrass on June 30, 1949. For over 50 years, she shared a life with her husband John Sharp. Together they had four children: Shanna, William, James and John. She leaves behind five grandchildren that she adored and cherished.

Cynthia, “Cindy,” to those that knew her, had a personality and spark that endeared her to all that met her. She was a fierce protector of family and imparted her spirit in everyone that crossed her path.  Later in life she re-envisioned herself and set off on a successful career that landed her as a valued member of IBM for over a decade. There was very little that Cynthia couldn’t do and do well.

A memorial service is scheduled for 11 a.m. on Feb. 11, 2023, at the First Presbyterian Church on Second Avenue between Ninth and 10th streets. A visitation will be held starting at 10 a.m. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America.
