West Paducah, Ky.
Sharon Ann Morse, 78, of West Paducah, Ky., formerly of Osage Beach, Mo., passed away on June 6, 2023, at her home.
She was born on Aug. 19, 1944, in Dakota City, Iowa, to John and Christine Pick. She was a graduate of Corpus Christi High School, Galesburg, Ill., and The Business College of Davenport, Iowa. Sharon had a deep love of the outdoors: fishing, hunting and gardening. This love of all things outdoors gave her a great passion for animals; her horses and various animals on the farm as well as breeding and grooming dogs, mainly schnauzers as additional income was always appreciated on the farm. She was also an excellent seamstress with an avid appreciation of the arts. She had recently retired from her business venture in Osage Beach, Mo.
Sharon is survived by her sisters, Donna Pick, Kay (Zeke) Zivkovich; brother, Jay (Pat) Pick; her children, Tammy (Alan) Meyers, John Bricker, Darren "DJ" Bricker and Krista Bricker; granddaughter, Madison Munoz-Bricker; and grandson, Alex Mades.
Sharon requested that there be no memorial service, but rather family and friends share their memories of time spent with her. Condolences at www.lindseyfuneral.com.
