Colonel George Rhea Sharp

Mr. Sharp was my principal at South Park High School in the '70's. He was a very fair and very tough man and you always knew where you stood with him. He expected the best and he gave the same and he touched a lot of lives. I know he will be missed. RIP Colonel Sharp.

Mr. Sharp was a great man, he was a great listener to the students. With his guidance and input and his letter he help me achieve my dream of going to Rice. I will always hold dear the strengths and encouragement and lessons he gave me Honor, Discipline and Truth.

God Bless you Mr. Sharp, for your contribution to our Country. Thank you for the impact you had on young lives and as principal of SPHS. We are internally grateful. May God continue to Bless your family and friends as they go through this difficult time. God Bless!!

Mr. Sharp was one of my favorite teachers. He taught in 1951 at South Park High School.

We have known George for many years and what a wonderful person to know. He was so kind and helpful to everyone in Pecan Place Townhomes , that knew him. You will missed George, but never forgotten. God be with all your family at this sad time, you all are in our prayers. Our Greatest Sympathy goes out to all of you. Many Hugs to all.

Rest in peace, Mr. Sharp. You were a great teacher to me but not at SPHS. I loved typing your various speeches and was always nervous when the famous red pen come out for corrections. It's those life lessons that teach others. The Flagship Mailroom will miss your nice smile and stories.

Had classes from Mr Sharp. Respected him very much. He & my dad were friends. I remember him telling funny Korean War stories. He will be missed.

Janelle,
He was a wonderful math teacher and a good friend. I was so happy when I learned you two were married. Heaven gained a wonderful man.

Please add my class SPHS 1969 to my my message. Thank you

One of the finest man I have known. Mr. Sharp always was fair to any GREENIE.. When we were told SP
was coming down he help boxed up books and papers so we would loose anything. I would go over to his home and talk to him. He had some great stories to tell
about GREENIES. He is one in a million . I will miss him.
