Attalinn Daisy Sheets, five months and 15 days of age, of Athens, OH passed away unexpectedly on Monday, June 12, 2023 at OhioHealth O’Bleness Hospital. Born Wednesday, December 28, 2022 in Marrietta, Ohio, she was the precious daughter of Patrick O’Dale Sheets and Taylor Faye Gwinn, both of Athens.
Daisy’s time here with us was cut so short. She made an impact on those around her. Daisy’s life was full of joy with an abduance of love. Fighting the pain of her first top tooth, Daisy remained the happy, bubbly baby she was. She was growing into her personality and learning to roll on her sides. She enjoyed trying licks of our sweets. We believed her to be a foody like her father. Her mommy would sing and dance with her on her hip to her favorite Disney songs all through the house. Daisy loved playing with her mom’s hair in her hands.
Blankies and her beloved stuffy, “Piggy” were Daisy’s favorite. Her face would always light up when her daddy came home from work. Her mommy would bring her to be the first person he saw after work; she would be so excited.
She of course loved her big brother and sisters, Ayden, Ellie and Madi. She loved to bounce and smile while holding her bubby Ayden’s finger, playing games with her sister Ellie and watching TV in the evenings with Madi. Ayden will miss playing Simba with his sweet baby sister. Daisy loved her siblings so much.
Daisy was so precious and touched so many lives during her short time here. Daisy made her family feel whole and complete. Her mother dreamed of having her Daisy for so long. There are no words to explain how much she will be missed.
Besides her parents, she is survived by her two big brothers, Ayden Gwinn, Patrick Sheets, Jr.; three big sisters, Madisynne, Adrianna, and Ellie Sheets; maternal grandparents, Grampy & Grammy Keith & Leslie Gwinn; paternal grandparents, Grandpa & Grandma Wade & Brenda Lawson; maternal great-grandfathers Don Stutler and David Lehman; paternal great-grandmother, Sandra Largent; paternal great-grandfather, John Scraggs; uncles, Brandon Sheets, Tyler Gwinn; aunt, Christina (Kea) Butcher; great-aunts & great-uncles, Brad (Shirley) Largent, Kevin Gwinn, Ronnie Lieving, Troy Lehman, Tiffany (Randy) Summers, Tawni Lehman, Shelley Napper; her amazing cousins, Cailyn, SJ, Bray, Aubriegh, Kaylee, Forest; and special friends, Ashlee Andrews, Carl Mobley, and Peyton Primell.

Also greeting her are her paternal great-grandfather, Patrick Largent; paternal great-grandmother, Esther Scragg; great-aunt Bridget Largent; maternal great-grandfather, Charles “Buddy” Gwinn; great-grandmothers, Rita Gwinn, Hildred Gwinn, and Joyce Smith Stutler.
