In the early 1980’s, Sharon followed her adopted father, Thomas Burns, to Oklahoma. One day, while attending Church at the House of Prayer, she met a young man named Paul Hunt.

They first made their home in Purcell, later settling near Slaughterville, where together they raised daughter, Sondra. Sharon worked in the cafeteria for Lexington Public Schools.

When she wasn’t working, Sharon enjoyed tending to her chickens and she loved all kinds of dogs. She enjoyed watching old westerns, and particularly Gunsmoke and The Rifleman. Sharon was a woman of great faith and a faithful member of the Friendly Mission Pentecostal Church of God in Lexington.
