Sharon Kay Gower

January 13, 1957 — April 10, 2024

Jackson


Sharon Kay Gower, known affectionately as Kay, was a compassionate soul whose life was dedicated to helping others in various ways. She departed this life peacefully on April 10, 2024, at the age of 67. She was born on January 13, 1957, to Rex and Beverly Dorrough.  

Kay's career was defined by her commitment to making a difference in the lives of those around her. From her early years to her later ones, she took on multiple jobs, all centered around the common theme of lending a helping hand to those in need. Her unwavering dedication to service left an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of knowing her.

One of Kay's greatest passions was her love for animals. She poured her heart into volunteering at the humane society, where she spent countless hours caring for furry friends in need. Her compassion knew no bounds as she even opened her home to several four-legged companions, despite any objections from her husband.

A graduate of Union University with a bachelor's degree, Kay was not only intelligent but also introspective. In her later years, she found solace in the pages of books, building a vast collection that reflected her curious mind and thirst for knowledge. In addition to her professional and personal accomplishments, Kay had a deep love soap operas. 

Kay's family was the pride and joy of her life. She cherished her loving husband and held her two sons dear to her heart. Her three grandchildren brought immense happiness and fulfillment to her days.

Left to cherish her memory is her husband, Steve Gower;  two sons, Ben Gower and Brett Gower (Whitney); grandchildren, Grayson Gower, Nathan Gower, and Abby Gower; mother, Beverly Dorrough; and brother, Ronnie Dorrough (Marcy). 

She was preceded in death by her father, Rex Dorrough. 

As we bid farewell to Sharon Kay Gower, we remember a woman whose kindness knew no bounds, whose love knew no limits. Her legacy will live on in the hearts of all those she touched with her warmth and generosity.  May she rest in peace knowing that her memory will forever be cherished by family and friends alike.
