Visit the Coffman Funeral Home of Harrison website to view the full obituary.

Joyce Carolyn Sharp, of Harrison, passed peacefully from this life on Wednesday, March 25, 2026, at the age of 92.

Joyce was born on April 9, 1933, in Batavia, Arkansas. She dedicated 30 years of faithful service as a Ward Secretary at Boone County Hospital, where her kindness and gentle spirit touched the lives of many. A woman of deep faith, Joyce loved the Lord and found great joy in sharing His word with others, especially the following Scriptures:

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life; he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.” John 11:25

“Precious in the sight of the Lord, is the death of His saints.” Psalm 116:15

“I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.” II Timothy 4:7

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Russell Sharp; her parents, Ted and Ethel Smith; her sister and brother-in-law, Bernice and Boyd Duncan; and her infant son, Billy Ray Huskey.

Joyce is survived by her loving children, Larry (Karen) Huskey of Knob Noster, Missouri, Diana (Jim) Arnold of Bellefonte, and Danny (Grace) Huskey of Bergman; six grandchildren; fourteen great-grandchildren; six great-great-grandchildren; and a host of other cherished family members and friends.

Visitation will be at 10:00 AM followed by a funeral service at 11:00 AM, both on Monday, March 30, 2026 at Coffman Funeral Home of Harrison. Brother Leo Dye and Jim Arnold will officiate. Burial will be at Summers Cemetery. Pallbearers include Mitchell York, Donald York, Bobby Huskey, Billy Huskey, Brandon York, and Riley Huskey. Honorary pallbearer is Steve Searcy.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to Legacy Hospice for their loving care and support.
