past 18 years. Bob was a member of the Lone Grove First Baptist Church.
Preceding him in death were his parents; first wife, Joyce Mae Harris
Sharp on July 17, 1991; and brother, Joe Sharp on October 27, 2004.
Survivors include his wife, Celestine Mapp Sharp of the home; six
children, Bobby Sharp and wife LuAnn of Marietta, Robyn Hodges and
husband Todd of Decatur, Texas, Roy Rowland and wife Regina, Mark Mapp
and wife DeAnna, and David Mapp, all of Lone Grove, and Kim McMahon and
husband David of Ardmore; four sisters, Marylee Vinson of Lone Grove,
Vanona Sue Birdsall and husband Richard of Ardmore, Geneva Moore and
husband John of Whitesboro, Texas, and Wilberta Robbins of Grand
