Notes for April Lee <strong>Sharpe</strong>:<br />

General Notes:<br />

April, whose family moved to California when she was about 10 years old, was raised mostly<br />

in Escondido, California. She initially communicated with me in an August 8, 2004 e-mail.<br />

In her e-mail to me, she had a delightful story about her first meeting with her Dad, Harry<br />

Franklin <strong>Sharpe</strong>, my first cousin:<br />

"I don't know if my Dad told you the story of how we finally met. It's a pretty amazing story<br />

actually. I was raised by my mother, and didn't even see my Dad until I was a junior in high<br />

school. I remember that somehow my Mom and Dad had got back in touch with each<br />

other, and decided that he and I should meet. I flew to Texas for the first time since I was a<br />

baby, to meet my Dad. [About 1982] <strong>My</strong> Dad said he would be wearing a suit, and would<br />

have a newspaper under his arm. I got off the plane, and what do you know? Every man<br />

in the airport had a suit on and a newspaper under his arm! Talk about nervous! After<br />

walking straight ahead for a bit, I caught eye contact with a man, whom I knew at that first<br />

instant was my father! I have always thought that I look so much like my Mom, but you<br />

would not believe how much I look like my Dad. The rest of the family did double takes<br />

when they saw me, they couldn't get over the resemblance either. I know it is kind of a<br />

strange story, but somehow God put my Dad back in my life, and I am so grateful to him for<br />

that. It was odd at first getting to know my Dad, but I now feel like we have never been<br />

separated. He is so very special to me."<br />

April is an escrow officer, who works for Chicago Title, on the escrow side. She mostly<br />

handles residential subdivision escrows. Her company targets the builders or developers,<br />

and then handle all the escrows in that subdivision. Her comment in 2004 about her work<br />

is, "I've being doing escrow for about 18 years now. It is a very stressful job, but I do enjoy<br />

a challenge!"<br />
