Sharon Cecilia Pierce

Sharon Cecilia Pierce of Tanner Williams passed from this life, after a short illness, to join her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on her 81st birthday, October 7, 2025. As the youngest of three children, she was born on October 7, 1944, to Patie (Cook) Pierce (later Harden) and Cecil Pierce.

She attended Tanner Williams Elementary School and later moved to Mobile with her family and attended school there.

At the age of 19, she went to work for Morrison’s Cafeteria and was a dedicated employee for over 50 years, finally retiring to care for her lifelong best friend, Stella Rosetta (“Jill”) Harden, who was in hospice at the time.
