Sharon L. Thomas, 66, of Lafayette went to her heavenly home on Sunday, July 19, 2020 at IU Health Arnett Hospital in Lafayette.

She was born on November 20, 1953 in Lafayette to the late Doit “Barney” Thomas and Helen L. (Young) Thomas. Sharon was involved with Wabash Center and Indiana Mentor Network. She loved music and listening to her father play guitar. She had a very special bond with her Mom, and they were very “in-tune” with each other.  She also enjoyed dressing up, wearing comfy Pajama dresses, hairbows, and her sparkly slippers. Her favorite drink was rootbeer and she loved Christmas, Christmas lights and her new chair. She also cherished her dog Skipper and would lay her head on him for hours and he would not move until Sharon did. She meticulously folded washcloths and put them in neat organized piles at the supportive living home where she lived.

She is survived by her mother, Helen Thomas; Cousins Jan (Cloyd) Wynn of IN, Anita (Jerry) Brooks of Tennessee, Donna Barbee of Lafayette, Jerry (Judy) Barbee of Lafayette, Mary Barbee, David Wilson, Mike Rustemeyer of Illinois, Richard Rustemeyer of Illinois, Mark Rustemeyer of Illinois, Carol Bennett (Robert), Steve Young.

Along with her father Doit “Barney” Thomas, she was preceded in death by her grandparents, Alta and Oscar Young; and her roommate and best friend, Patricia Trott.
