SHARON AKIN Obituary

Published by Coulter-Garrison Funeral Home, Inc. on Dec. 7, 2016.
Sharon at the age of 61, closed her eyes on earth and opened them to see her Savior's face on December 7, 2016. She grew up in Missouri and Ohio before settling in Dayton, Tennessee, where she spent the rest of her life. She was funny and kind and loved people, and loved Jesus most of all. There is no great accomplishments that she would want to share, save one: that she fully trusted in Jesus and longed to be with him, and she has now done that. Sharon will be missed by her husband of 34 years, Glenn "Redbird" Akin, two daughters Amber (Jake) Goins, Jordan Akin (Jim Ward) two grandchildren Wyatt and Beckett Goins, and a mulituide of family and friends.

Larry and I are so sorry to hear of your loss. We rejoice with great joy that Sharon's faith is in the Lord Jesus Christ. If we had hope in Christ in this life only we would be most miserable, but the resurrection of His beloved is soon coming. Family and friends will be together again because of Christ. We are praying for your family.
