Sharon loved to sing for the Lord with her beloved friends, Marshula Phillips, Sue Doughty and Millie Willard. They traveled to different churches and venues sharing the gospel of Jesus in song.  Sharon had a beautiful talent that she used to glorify her Savior, Jesus.  Many have said that when she sang it was like hearing an angel sing.

The Chantler family home was a place where family and friends were welcome. Sharon passed on her love for music and worship for the Lord to her children. Sharon and Fred lived their lives for the Lord.

In the past few years after Fred's passing, Sharon kept herself busy with making jewelry, coloring pictures, oil painting classes, shopping, watching I love Lucy and Bill Gaither videos and especially loved the visits with her children and grandchildren.

John 3:16, "For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He gave up His only begotten Son, so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal and everlasting life."

Matthew 6:9, "Our Father Who art in Heaven, hallowed by Your Name.  Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.  Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.  For Thine is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory forever, amen!"
