May 17, 2026.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Sharon Lees, President, Board of Trustees, Elberon Memorial Church.

Sharon had been struggling with health issues for several years and succumbed at home with husband Jeremy at her side, last night.

Sharon's knowledge of Elberon Church's long and rich history was extensive as was her devotion to the workings of our beloved Summer Worship Program. 

We will do the best to continue to offer a most unique program of preaching and music in her honor and to the glory of our Triune God. 

Pray for Jeremy and the Board as we struggle to carry on without our Beloved Sister in the Faith.         More details of arrangements to follow on this site...
