Sharon Overman Obituary

In Loving Memory of Sharon Ann Overman With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Sharon Ann Overman, a beloved mother, grandmother, and friend, who departed this life on May 30, 2025, at the age of 73. Sharon was born in Helena, Arkansas, to Carlene Smith and Marvin Johnson. A longtime resident of Memphis, Tennessee, Sharon was a woman of strength, deep love, and a kind presence. She dedicated her life to caring for others through a long and devoted career in nursing. Her steady hands and open heart brought comfort to countless patients and families over the years, and her legacy of service continues to inspire those who knew her. She touched the lives of those around her with warmth, grace, and a nurturing spirit that will be deeply missed. She is survived by her loving son, John Rheaume, and her cherished granddaughter, Kayleigh Rheaume. Sharon's life was centered on family, and she found profound joy in being both a mother and grandmother. Her legacy lives on in the love she gave and the memories she leaves behind. Though she is no longer with us, Sharon's kindness and love will remain forever in our hearts.

Sharon was a wonderful neighbor and friend. She was on the same floor in M when we moved in. She was welcoming and we became friends. We both dogs then and we often visited while outside. We will miss Sharon and appreciate her friendship!

I first met Sharon at a Sunday Brunch at Kirby Pines, through her close friend, Genenne Wilson. Thereafter there were several such meetings. She was always friendly and ready to have a conversation. Sadly, Her absence will be missed by many, especially her dear friend Genenne. Marian Gray.

Though I didn´t know her long, she became an instant friend at Kirby Pines. We loved making cards together, a love we both shared. She will be greatly missed.
