Sharon obtained her Bachelor’s Degree from the University of New Orleans.
She spent her career working in Grants and Contracts Department at Tulane Medical School.
Always known as a very compassionate lady, Sharon’s motto was: No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted. Her family and friends will miss her quick wit and humor. She appreciated the leisure of her retirement years; watching her cats antics, playing scrabble or video poker. She also enjoyed going to the theater with her sister and nieces. Sharon was always ready to have a good gab over a cup of coffee and a slice of cheesecake.
Sharon was predeceased by her parents Arthur M. Gaudet, Sr., and Thais Huffman Gaudet. She is survived by her children Raymond S. Jennings, Jr., (Bethany) of Covington, and Michele R. Toye (Montgomery) of River Ridge, granddaughter Emma Jennings, siblings Odette Gaudet Nash of Slidell, and Arthur “Petey” M. Gaudet, Jr. (Cindy) of Hammond, nieces and nephews Melanie Schunneman (Jeffery), Ralph Jennings, Dolly Nash, Cindy Nash, Jamie Nash and Blake Nash. She is also survived by several grand nieces and nephews.
The family would especially like to thank her daughter-in-law Bethany Jennings for all her loving around the clock care over her last days and nights.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend a visitation to be held from 11AM to noon followed by Mass at St. Matthew the Apostle Catholic Church located at 10021 Jefferson Highway in River Ridge. www.LeitzEaganFuneralHome.com.
