Sharon Rene Womack, 47, was born on May 20, 1972, at Independence Regional Hospital, Independence. Sharon lived at home with her parents, Lyle Wayne and Viola May (Rash) Womack, Oak Grove.

Sharon always had a smile; she loved everyone she met. She never complained. Sharon loved hugs, playing on her phone, doing puzzle books and watching television. Sharon loved Disney World; Buzz Lightyear was her favorite ride. Everyone always remembered Sharon and her beautiful smile.

Sharon has many cousins and other relatives she loved very much.

She also had countless friends she loved and was especially close to her good friend, Cedric Benoit of Branson; they had a special friendship, since the first time they met, 20-plus years ago.
