Sharon Pepperkorn Berry, 79, of Lebanon Junction, died on the evening of October 28, 2025, in Louisville, Kentucky. She was 79 years old.
Sharon and her twin sister, Faye, were born on December 7, 1945, to Samuel and Sophia Pepperkorn. Her parents and sister preceded her in death.
For 28 years, Sharon, with her signature braids, safely guided generations of Bullitt County children as a beloved school-bus driver. She devoted herself to every creature great and small-supporting local shelters, spoiling her own pets, and raising Grand-Champion turkeys honored at the Kentucky State Fair for their breed perfection, lustrous feathers, and impeccable presentation.
Sharon is survived by her husband, David Berry; her children, Shane A. Smith, Gordon Smith, Kim MaGee, John Silva, and her grandson Caleb MaGee; as well as many cousins and extended family.
Visitation will begin at 11:30 a.m. on Sunday, November 2, and the funeral at 1:00 p.m. Both will be held at Herman Meyer & Son, Inc., 1338 Ellison Ave. Burial will follow in Adath Jeshurun Cemetery.
In memory of Sharon, and in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to The Arrow Fund, a non-profit that rescues, rehabilitates, and rehomes animal victims of extreme torture, abuse, or neglect.
