My duties include the sales, morning show, afternoon’s 1-3, as well as play-by play of high school sports on WTGR. I live in Versailles with my wife: Kim, married 8-26-06; six children: Zachary (14), Lydia (12), Audrey (9), Clara (8), Thomas (4) & George (born Feb. 2021).

Hi everyone! I’m Sharon Shelley…I have the pleasure of being with you weekdays 3-8 and also on the weekend for Country Lanes Saturday 7a-10a & Sunday Morning Inspiration 7-Noon. I love spending time with all of you and thank you so much for listening. Pictured here with my very own fan club! God has blessed me with such a wonderful family & I have found the joy of being a Mom has expanded into Mother-in-law and a Grandmother! For those of you who are Grandparents, you know what I mean when I say, “there’s nothing like hearing that sweet voice say Grandma or Grandpa” (in my case, Mim Mim) You truly are an inspiration each and every day and I thank you so much for taking your time to spend some time with me! God Bless!
