         Hershel Benson “H.B.” Sharp, age 85 of Bon Aqua, TN, passed away Monday, December 7, 2020 at The Meadows in Bellevue.  Hershel was born April 26, 1935 in Nashville, TN to Hershel Eugene and Cornelia “Tene” Larkins Sharp.  On July 16, 1955, he married his sweetheart, the former Peggy Jo Brockett of Nashville.  He was a proud patriot and U. S. Navy veteran.  Hershel was employed by Brandau-Craig-Dickerson in Nashville as a printer.  Upon his early retirement he maintained and cared for the family farm.  Throughout Hershel’s life, he held an unwavering faith in God, which he shared with those who surrounded him.  He was a lifelong member of Liberty Hill Church of Christ where he was known as the “candy man”, for his stories and his infectious smile. 

     Hershel is survived by his wife, Peggy and his son and daughter-in-love, David and Carrie (Landman) Sharp, his brother, Steve Sharp and further survived by other very special family and friends.  He was preceded in death by his parents, and siblings:  Martha Jean Harper, Callie “Billie” Reding, Richard Sharp, Wayne Sharp, and Ronnie Sharp.  Private family services will be held with a celebration of life later when all can attend safely.  In lieu of flowers, the family asks donations be made to Liberty Hill Church of Christ Building Fund, P. O. Box 63, Fairview, TN  37062.
