Sharon Yvette (Fenwick) Chase or "Mickey", as she was fondly called by her family, 59 of District Heights, MD., (formerly of Chaptico, MD), departed this earthly life to ascend into glory on Sunday, May 13, 2012, surrounded by her loving family. Born December 18, 1952 in Leonardtown, MD, she was the fourth child born to the late Harry "Buck" P. Fenwick and the late Edna E. Fenwick (Dent).

Mickey attended public schools in St. Mary's County. She married George P. Chase, Jr. in March 1978, and has two daughters: Sherri L. Young and Tonya L. Chase. She worked at Regency Nursing Facility in Forestville, MD. Mickey was currently working as the Resident Manager at Spanish Village Apartments, and was one of the most well respected resident managers that they could have ever had.

Mickey was quite the comedian; you could count on her to make a not so bad situation into something humorous. She enjoyed gambling. There wasn't a slot machine that wasn't her friend, or a family friendly card game that she wasn't coming out a winner. Traveling with her family was special to her; Rehoboth Beach, visiting family in North Carolina, and enjoying a Thanksgiving cruise to the Bahamas. Her favorite time was the weekend spent with her granddaughter and husband, adventuring to many shopping centers, restaurants, and parks. There was nothing that gave her more pleasure than shopping for and spoiling her granddaughter Sheridan. Mickey was fun-loving and always willing to give a helping hand to anyone whether it was sharing one of her wonderful home cooked meals or just being there to listen when it mattered the most.

Mickey leaves fond memories in hearts of many, including her loving and devoted husband George P. Chase, Jr.; daughters Sherri L. Young, Tonya L. Chase, and a beautiful grand-daughter Sheridan L. Young. Four brothers, Harry P. Fenwick, Jr.(Pat) of District Heights, MD; James V. Fenwick of Lusby, MD, (Diane), Paul A. Fenwick of Bushwood, MD; Chris O. Fenwick of Lexington Park, MD; five sisters, Mary "Susie" A. Somerville (Woodley) of Hollywood, MD; Diane M. Fenwick of Hollywood, MD; Dorothy L. Fenwick of District Heights, MD; Terri L. Fenwick of District Heights, MD; Toni F. Blackwell (Tim) of Lexington Park, MD; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Mickey was preceded in death by her parents and one brother James "Sonnyboy" E. Dent. Family and friends will unite for visitation from 9 am until Mass of Christian Burial at 10 am on Wednesday, May 23, 2012 at St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Morganza, MD. Interment immediately following at Sacred Heart Church Cemetery, Bushwood, MD.
