Sharla was born March 15, 1947, to Harvey and Dorothy Broussard in Jennings. She married Artie Miller on Jan. 3, 1964. They enjoyed 57 years of marriage together.

Sharla enjoyed being a wife to her husband, a mother to her children and a Memaw to her nine grand and three great-grandchildren. Her reach extended to all the “grand” friends who called her Memaw, as well.

Sharla was a fixture in the stands at any volleyball match in the state of Texas and was well-known by several generations of both players and coaches. She was especially fond of the lucky few to wear the number 7 on their jersey, as her daughters and granddaughters all wore that number during their many seasons of competition over the years.

Sharla is survived by her husband, Artie Miller; her daughters, Angie Sparks and husband Steve and Shawn Shackelford and husband Jason; her sons, Kendall and wife Kathleen and Kevin and wife Nicole; her grandchildren, Jacqueline Hodges and husband Mark, Wayne Sparks, Kaitlyn and Kristen Miller, Stuart Flowers and wife Taylor, Kassidy and Skyler Shackelford and Madelyn and Kyan Miller; and her great-grandchildren, Beaux and Haddie Hodges and Rylan Flowers.
