Sherry O’Neal, age 67, of Lebanon, passed away on March 13, 2026, at Vanderbilt Wilson County Hospital.

Born on February 20, 1959, in Wilson County, she was the daughter of the late Paul Douglas O’Neal and Nancy Lowery O’Neal Raines. A 1977 graduate of Lebanon High School, Sherry worked in the payroll department at P.P.G.

Sherry cherished her family above all, especially her son, Paul. She found great joy in nature, hiking, gardening, and taking road trips. In her younger years she was active in the Lebanon Jaycees, loved dancing with the two-step as her favorite, and served with dedication on the Wilson County Fair Board for thirty-five years, where she enjoyed working the Coke wagon in Fiddlers Grove alongside her friends.

She is survived by her son, Paul O’Neal; brother, Steve (Kimberly) O’Neal; sister, Kelly (Russ) Hendricks; nephews, Stephen O’Neal, Kevin (Erika) O’Neal, and John Hendricks; niece, Marcie (Clayton) Mosley; great-niece, Charlotte O’Neal; great-nephew, Nolan O’Neal; and many beloved aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
