nee Sharon Ann “Ann” Howlett, b. Christiansburg, d/o Lewis Clyde & Ruth Margaret (Yates) Howlett. [Death Cert] [no file] Granddaughter of Sharon Berkley & Hettie Lee (King) Yates. [Yeatts_John_Mary]

m. 1967 Roanoke

Richard Beverly Eggleston III, b. 19 Dec 1948 Roanoke, s/o Richard Beverly II & Mabyn Jarvis (Bass) Eggleston.

EGGLESTON, Sharon Ann Howlett, departed this life, Wednesday, November 8, 2000, at her home in Roanoke after battling a long illness. She was surrounded by family and friends during her final days.

Ann was born in Christiansburg in 1949 and spent her life as a devoted Christian. The courage and strength that Ann showed throughout her illness is a testament to her faith, and an inspiration to us all. She was a loving wife, mother, sister and grandmother. Her innocence and endless ability to forgive has had a profound impact on those she has left behind.

She is survived by her husband, Richard B. Eggleston, III; her sons, Richard B. Eggleston, IV and Donald P. Eggleston; her daughters-in-law, Patricia and Kristy; her beautiful grandchildren, Amy Michelle, Charles Richard and Abby Ruth; her soulmate and sister, Margaret Howlett Lester and husband, Lawrence; one brother, Robert Y. Howlett; one brother-in-law, Robert L. Eggleston and wife, Dee; two uncles, Irving Yates and Oshiar Howlett and their wives, Virginia and Elizabeth.

The celebration of Ann's life will begin with a Catholic funeral ceremony at Our Lady of Nazareth Catholic Church, 11 a.m. Monday, November 13, 2000, officiated by the Rev. Joseph Lehman to be followed by a reception for family and friends at the church. The funeral procession will continue to Ann's final resting site at the Yates Family Cemetery in Floyd County at 2 p.m. The family is humbly thankful for the support and love they have received and would like to especially thank Dr. Stephen Hill, Dr. Tom Stoecker and Dr. Kirk Hippensteel for their excellent medical care and kindness. Ann, we will miss you. Arrangements by Oakey's South Chapel.
