Sharon Ann White Rowe, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away on December 29, 2025, at the age of 72 in her hometown of Lawrenceburg, Tennessee. Born on June 9, 1953, in Lawrence County, TN, Sharon’s life was one marked by devotion to her family, her faith, and her community.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Sammy Neal and Minaleen Hood White, and her brother, Thomas Wade White.
Her memory will be treasured and kept alive by her devoted husband of many years, Frank Rowe, and her sister, Shelby White Bonner, both of Lawrenceburg, TN. Sharon’s legacy continues through her five children: Brian Shaw and his wife Amy of Lawrenceburg, TN, Dava Gooch and her husband Ben of Lawrenceburg, TN, Ryan Shaw of Manchester, TN, Michael Rowe of Brentwood, TN, and Cindy Rowe and her significant other Dan of Nashville, TN. Her ten grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren, several nieces and nephews, who brought immense joy and pride to her life, will miss her deeply.
Sharon’s life was one of service and dedication. She retired as a DMV Supervisor from the State of Tennessee, where she was known for her fairness, kindness, and a warm smile that could put anyone at ease. Her commitment to her faith was evident to all who knew her as an active member of Mars Hill Baptist Church, where she found great solace and fellowship.
An avid sports enthusiast, Sharon’s love for the Tennessee Vols was only surpassed by the pride and excitement she felt watching her grandchildren and great-grandchildren play sports. She was their most loyal fan, never missing a game and always offering words of encouragement and praise. Her presence on the sidelines will be profoundly missed.
