Mrs. Keel was born May 8,1950 in San Angelo to CJ and Joyce Ford. She married her high school sweetheart and love of her life, Joe David Keel, on June 12, 1970 in San Angelo. They were married for 54 years.

To know Wynell was to love her. She loved to love on people. Her kids and grandkids were her pride and joy. She had the biggest servant's heart and loved to serve at her church, PaulAnn Church. She has impacted the lives of many people over the years with her caring and giving heart.

She retired from SAISD in 2005 and briefly came out of retirement to take an office position at PaulAnn Church for a few years before retiring a second time. After that, she continued to be very involved and volunteered regularly at the church. 

Her life was a living example of one of her many favorite Bible verses, Ephesians 4:32 "And be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another, just as God also forgave you in Christ."

Wynell left a legacy of love, compassion, and service. She made a statement right after we received the diagnosis that was really powerful. She said, "Live your life today as if you're not gonna be here tomorrow." That is exactly how she lived her life. She also was known to say, "Remember to 'SHINE FOR JESUS' no matter where you are and what the circumstance is."

Sharon married Hubert Gauwain and together they had four children – Barry Gauwain, Sherri Gauwain Sanderfur, Terry Gauwain, and Race Gauwain. Sharon was an amazing mother. She had a special ability to keep up with all her boys with the help of Sherri. Together they were determined for those boys to have everything they needed. Sharon was also a mom to all her kid’s friends. They always had a houseful of kids coming and going. Sharon made countless Ham Sandwiches and bowls of homemade Salsa for all of them along with her famous sweet tea. Her home was a safe place for many. While raising her family she worked at the San Angelo State School for many years as a nurse. She loved her career and helping to care for others. Her work ethic was unmatched as a nurse and as a mother. She carried all her burdens in life with beautiful strength.

Sharon especially loved her dogs, Sugar, Harley, and Judy. And she left behind her stray cat that she took in and named Mama Cat. She was an amazing cook and kept a very clean house. She took pride in everything that she was ever responsible for.

Sharon loved the Lord. She always talked about the “Good Lord.” She wasn’t afraid of leaving this world. She knew where she was going, and she looked forward to being reunited with her mother, whom she spoke about often.

Outside of work, Pamela was an active member of the AA organization, providing support and guidance to those in search of changing their lives through belief in a higher being. Pam continued her love for horses, especially her mare “Dancer” and found solace and joy in spending time on horseback and just commiserating with them. She also enjoyed going to her mountain “Cabin” in Alto, NM where she and her trusty Texas Blue Lacy, Reina would take long and extended hikes on the back trails, enjoying the deer and elk and the occasional coyote they would discover on their treks.

On June 12, 2024, Pamela passed away after a brave battle with Lymphoma Cancer. Her legacy lives on through her children, grandchildren and all of those lives she touched with her kindness and compassion.
