Sharon Anette Woodard, 70, of Glencoe, Al passed away on December 5th, 2023. My chains are gone, and I've been set free. Sharon was preceded in death by her father Stanley Woodard, mother Helen Rutledge Bentley, brother Randy Woodard, and brother Mike Woodard. She is survived by her daughter Carmen Webb (Scott), son Dusty Rowell (Lacey), grandkids Camden Harris, Trey Rowell, Trent Rowell, Kayla Rowell, Drew Webb, and Matt Webb, brother Dale Woodard, sister Terri Woodard Dodd Shadwrick, and honorary grandkids Jonathan Shadwrick, BJ Shadwrick, Savannah Jones, Luke Booker, Daniel Maye, and a host of other "adopted" grandkids. She is also survived by a great quantity of nieces and nephews who were dearly loved. In addition she's survived by her cherished babies Scooter and Pixie. When Sharon was asked what is the most important thing in this earthly life, her response was always family, everyone in her family. Staying connected with her brothers and sister was an essential part of life, and she was dedicated wholly to her kids, grandkids, and a host of other "adopted" grandkids. She was a fun, free spirit who refused to take the beaten path, and provided many exciting adventures and experiences that will be cherished forever in a multitude of hearts. We want to give a special thanks to Tammy Collier, Robin Thomas, Carole Wasser, and the whole Gentiva hospice team that helped mom with her transition into this beautiful reunion. Sharon knew, when her chains were broken, that she'd be reconnected with the family who preceded her in death, and she is rejoicing with them now. She asked us not to mourn her death but to have a jubilation that will celebrate her life. There will be a celebration of life, at Carmen and Scott Webb's home, by her request, on December 30th, 2023, at 6pm. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to Etowah County Animal Shelter.Show more
