Sharon Viola Eaton-Miller was born January 7, 1952, in Denver, Colorado to her parents Phennell and Dessie Mae Eaton. She was one of six children born in the family. She grew up with her siblings in whom she loved dearly. She is preceded in death by mother Dessie Mae Austin, sister Julia Ann Eaton and brother Fredrick Allen Evans. Sharon attended Denver public schools and graduated from Manual High School with honors while pregnant with her first daughter TheVoice Robinson. Ten years later she had her second daughter Danita Janelle Johnson, later to be followed by three sons- Johnathan, Donovan and Davon. Sharon pursued many employment ventures and was most recently employed at the Senior Support Services Non-profit Organization where she was instrumental in helping senior citizens, mentally ill individuals, disabled persons and the homeless population with food, clothing, community resources and if nothing else a kind and caring conversation. Sharon is known as a woman of strength, charm, charisma, humor, and a force to be reckoned with, but above all she is known as a woman of Faith. She is remembered by her family and friends for her heart felt prayers, telephone voice messages she left of gospel songs that she loved to sing (even if she did not know the correct words she would make them up), scriptures that she quoted, ice cream cones that she loved to treat her loved ones to, Sunday dinners that she took joy in preparing, snacks and goodies that she always carried in her purse, playtime that she loved to spend with her grandchildren and great grandchild, walks and picnics in the park, movies that she loved to watch, crocheted blankets and hats that she made, cards, board games and dominoes (one of her favorites) that she loved to play. She is famously remembered by her siblings as Mayonnaise, a childhood nickname while playing house. No matter what she may have been going through at times in her life, Sharon was the life of the party. She was always dancing even if she danced alone but in most cases she never did because the joy she shared through her movement, passion and excitement to the music was undeniable and contagious. She will be missed tremendously and is most remembered for her vibrant smile, enthusiasm, caring heart, encouragement, courage, willingness to help, accept and protect others- yes, she would fight for you literally if she had to. It's been said that Muhammed Ali had nothing on Sharon E. Sharon is remembered for the unconditional love for her family and others and her ability to forgive. She never held grudges no matter the offense and she always kept her faith in God even until her very last breath. Sharon Viola Eaton-Miller departed this life to be in the presence of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and Father God Yahweh on September 19, 2015 at Parker Adventist hospital.
