You were the best principal I ever had you always believed in me and never gave up on me I'm just now finding out about your passing may your spirit live on you were a inspiration to me and many of your former students
Kirk, Melody, and Steve and families, We both send our sympathy in the loss of your dad. Your parents were always so supportive, and we both have many fond memories of them attending all our musical functions at Elyria High. Warmest condolences to you in your time of loss.
To the Sharrock family. Dick and Carol contributed so much to the Elyria community through their talent in music and theatre. My second year of teaching was at Windsor School when Dick was there and we became friends. I admired both of your parents talents and kindnesses. You are all in my heart and prayers.
Richard was my last surviving uncle. Remember the holidays at my grandparents house when I was young. He always took an interest in me and my sister as well as my cousins. Never forget the bright lights of his movie camera! He is in a better place now. God Bless
Mr. Sharrock was a wonderful principal and a nice man. I saw him not only in school, but I'd stop and chat with him when he was in his front yard at the corner of Stafford and Abbe Road. He would stop what he was doing and chat. He knew most of his students by name. He was good counsel to me, too. I remember complaining about something and him telling me a similar story that happened to him when he was my age, and it put things into perspective. He was not the principal I FEARED. When I did get into a little trouble, again, he kept it in perspective and treated me fairly. He was always calm and composed but he told me exactly what he thought. I wrote to him twice when I was an adult and he answered my letters. He earned all the good things that he enjoyed. I'm a much better person having had his guidance.
Steve, Kirk and Melody, Your dad was a true gentleman. I often think back to my days at Windsor school and realize now that your dad took so much pride in being our principal at our school. I know he had a positive impact on so many students through out his time at Windsor school. I plan to walk over to see all of you on Saturday. Praying for all of you during this difficult time. Peace, Tom Callahan
Im sorry to hear of the passing of your father. I worked with your Mom, who I know also passed away recently, and Dad on the founding of the Lorain County Pioneer Theater. They were wonderful, dedicated people who wanted to bring childrens theater to Elyria. I had the honor of being the first director of the workshop, but it was the 2 of them who made the endeavor successful. My condolences to all of you.
Please accept my sincere condolences. Mr Sharrock remembered by all who were blessed to know him. My most fond memory is Sing, sing a song. Make it simple, to last your whole life long. Dont worry if its not good enough, for anyone else to hear. Just sing, sing a song 🎶 🎤 Rest peacefully Sir. You will be missed.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you for the best of everything. God bless.
So very sorry for your loss. God bless you and your family.
