Dream Big

Celebration of Life for Sharon Carol Watts Hahn
November 14, 2025
Sharon Carol Watts Hahn, 86, beloved wife, mother, sister, grandmother, Gigi and cherished friend passed away peacefully on November 10, 2025, with her husband by her side. Born August 21, 1939, in Wyandotte, Michigan.
Sharon is reunited in heaven with her parents, Bert Watts and Caroline Asmus and cherished brother Arthur Watts. She is remembered by her dear, husband of nearly 68 years Marvin and her siblings Darlene (Mike), Dennis (Gail) and Carla (Auntie Jean). She is also remembered by her daughter Susan (Derwin), son Gordon (Theresa), and daughter Kim. In addition to her adoring grandchildren Jessica (Jason), Joshua (Stevie) Jason (Rick), Sarah (Mike), Shelby (Weston), Tyler (Alea), Jacob (Gabby), Aaron (Braelynn). Moreover, our Gigi was blessed to have 17 beautiful great grandchildren Jackson, Noah, Luke, Aiden, Enzo, River, Wolf, Griffin, Garrett, Aldridge, Ethan, Brooks, Grayson, Smith, Trewhitt, Emma and Olivia.
Sharon attended Theodore Roosevelt High School in Wyandotte. She met the love of her life while working at a dry cleaners and married at a young age.
After marrying her, dear husband Marvin, her focus shifted to nurturing her family and her faith. As a wife, mother & homemaker she created a comfortable haven for her family. She enjoyed cooking and baking, camping with her family, square dancing, cruising, countless mission trips around the world with Marvin and sharing that big, beautiful smile and love to those in need. The memories she made with her loved ones, both at home and across the world, are treasures that will forever resonate within our hearts.
Throughout her life, Sharon demonstrated the power of her faith and belief in our Lord and Savior. She was a passionate follower of Christ and everyone around her knew it just by her example.
Sharon’s optimism, quiet courage, and unwavering strength guided her after her Alzheimer’s diagnosis. She handled all of life’s ups and downs with dignity and grace. No challenge was too big for her, and she was an inspiration to all.
As we come together to celebrate the life of Sharon we are reminded of the warmth, kindness, and love she showed to all who knew her. Her legacy will endure in her family, stories shared, and the laughter that uplifts our spirits, just as she did throughout her extraordinary life.
There will be a Celebration of Life Service, 5:00 P.M. Friday November 14, 2025, at City Church 7122 Lee Hwy. Chattanooga, TN. 37421. In lieu of flowers the family requests donations to either Hearth Hospice or City Church Chattanooga.
Arrangements by Heritage Funeral Home, East Brainerd Chapel.
His Unshakeable Kingdom
November 9, 2025 • Shannon Chapman • Daniel 2
The mightiest man-made empires are temporary at best and will not last forever! We learn from the story of Daniel that when Christ returns, all earthly kingdoms will be destroyed so we must build our life upon the Rock, Jesus Christ.
Not of this World
November 2, 2025 • Shannon Chapman • John 17:16, Daniel 1:8–17
As Christians, we have a clear mandate from God to love our enemies and stand for godliness. We kick off our Daniel series with the reminder that this world is not our home.
The Ability of Jehovah
October 26, 2025 • Pastor Nick Ezeh
It’s the ability of God that helps us move forward. We receive an encouraging word from guest speaker, Nicholas Ezah, as he reminds us of the power of God that we carry.
We spend time discussing our vision as a church and how we seek to be a community of real people who experience grace, truth, and healing.
The Lord Builds His Church
October 12, 2025 • Shannon Chapman • Acts 2:42–46, Matthew 28:19, Psalm 127:1
There is nothing more powerful than a person’s story of redemption! We learn that the early church was an evangelizing church, and we too are called to share our own personal stories of redemption with others as the Lord opens hearts and adds to His church.
This week, we look to the New Testament model of generosity and see we are not to give out of obligation, but proportionately, willingly, and cheerfully.
When our collective focus is vertical, our horizontal relationships are strengthened. Greg Keylon reminds us of the importance of unity in the church and urges us to be of one heart with one purpose.
