Charlotte Gale Arnold Sharp (formerly Charlotte Gale Sheppeard), age 70, loving mother of two, and adoring wife to husband Jeff Sharp, passed away in the early hours of September 28, 2025 at her home surrounded by loved ones. Gale was born in 1955 to Willie Fred Arnold and Clara Wardine Arnold of Doddsvile, MS (Roundaway). Gale was a loving and caring woman, always giving her time to others, and a huge love for Jesus. As a mother she was generous, loving and kind. Gale was an amazing Gammy to her grandchildren. In her free time Gale loved to garden, game nights, singing, spending time with her family and friends, and most of all praising Jesus every second she could. And let’s not forget her love for watching Ole Miss football games. You would know if the game was on because you could hear her cheering them on or letting them know what they did wrong from a mile away. She believed it was very important to make sure everyone she came in contact with knew Jesus and just how amazing he is. She will be greatly missed by her family and especially her two sons: Andrew Sheppeard and Jonathan Sheppeard who adore her with all of their hearts.
We know that we can’t have you but we’re happy knowing that the angels have finally got you back. “See you soon” and “Love you Big much” to a wonderful woman, a beautiful mother and Gammy and greatest friend.
