Paula Ann Sharp, age 55, passed away on December 29, 2025. She was born on January 9, 1970, in Cincinnati, Ohio, and was a lifelong resident of Covington, Kentucky, a community she proudly called home.

Paula attended Covington Holmes High School and went on to spend many years as the manager of Save Discount Drugs, where she was known for her strong work ethic, reliability, and the genuine care she showed to customers and coworkers alike.

Above all else, Paula’s greatest joy in life was her family. She was a devoted daughter, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. Nothing made her happier than time spent with her loved ones—especially her grandchildren and her nieces and nephews, who held a very special place in her heart. Her love was deep, steady, and unconditional, and she showed it through her constant presence, support, and fierce loyalty to those she cared about.

Paula was preceded in death by her grandmother, Lona Turner; her uncles, Paul Turner Sr. and Ralph Wathen; her aunt, Ann Wathen; and her cousins, Charlene Wathen-Eckler and Kathy Wathen-Vieth.

She is survived by her mother, Shirley Sharp; her son, Michael Sharp and his wife Amber, her son Matthew Sharp; and her beloved grandchildren: Kaitlyn Marie Sparks, Mya Ann Sharp, Michael Wayne Sharp, McKenzie Charlene Sharp, and twins Hope and Freedom Woeger, who were the light of her life.

She is also survived by her twin brother, Paul Sharp, and his wife Beverly, and their children Shelby Sharp and Jaxon Sharp; her sister Donna Clark and her husband David, and their children Katrina Sharp and Tiffany Sharp. Paula is further survived by her great-niece Jada Sharp and great-nephews Jordan Sharp, Westyn Sharp, William Sharp, and Daxston Maksic.

Paula will be remembered for her warmth, her strength, and her unwavering dedication to her family. Her love leaves a lasting legacy, and she will be deeply missed by all who were blessed to know her.

Service arrangements will be announced at a later date.
