Sharon M. Morrell's Obituary
Sharon Mary Ann Morrell, 44, passed away peacefully with her family by her side on September 4, 2018. Loving wife to Don Zappley for 5 years. Cherished daughter to Chuck and Mary Morrell. Dear sister to Kathy Hartman (Scott) and Stephen Morrell (Michele). Beloved “Aunt Fish” to Aiden, Caitlin, Ava, and Chase. Adoring mother to her canine child Kronos.
It is impossible to summarize the impact Sharon had over 44 years as a friend, educator, mentor, and leader.
