It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Marnie Renee Barnett Sherrer on April 7th, 2024, in Auburn, Alabama, at the age of 58. Born on July 30th, 1965, in Columbus, Georgia, to Anthony Barnett and Gail Barnett Smith.

Marnie's journey was marked by the profound impact she had on those around her through her kindness, compassion, and unconditional love. Marnie's legacy is carried on by her loving sons, Jeremy Sherrer and Zachary Sherrer; her devoted parents, Gail Barnett Smith and Phillip Smith; her siblings, Paige (Paul) Moeller and J.J. (Melissa) Barnett; her nieces and nephew, Payton Moeller, Paxton Moeller, Magg Barnett and Charlotte Barnett; her adorable grandson, Cameron Worley. She is also survived by many loving aunts and uncles, cousins, and close family friends. Marnie is preceded in death by her father, Anthony Barnett; her grandparents, Frank Willard and Mary Julia Wilchar, Marion and Alice Barnett, Stanford and Marion Smith. A service to celebrate Marnie's life will be held on Saturday, April 13th, 2024, at First Baptist Church of Opelika with a visitation from 12:30 pm to 1:45 pm and a service to begin at 2:00 p.m. This gathering will honor the joy she brought into our lives and the indelible marks she left on our hearts. The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the staff at Bethany House In-patient Hospice for their care and compassion during Marnie's final days. Their support was a beacon of light during a time of darkness. In her memory, we find comfort in the words of Revelation 21:4: "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." Marnie's spirit of love and kindness will forever remain a guiding force in all of our lives.

In lieu of flowers, the family hopes that you would consider supporting the work of the local Bethany House by making a donation to Hospice Angels, 1171 Gatewood Dr, Bldg 100, Auburn, AL 36830.
