Stepping Up for Ouachita

Stepping Up for Ouachita will be held on Friday, Nov. 8, 2024, at Chenal Country Club in Little Rock.

This year, Ouachita will honor four outstanding women: Susan (Williams) Doshier ’81, Shari (Deaver) Edwards ’85, Carol Miller Gresham ’76 and Kathy (Mitchell) Rainwater.

Stepping Up for Ouachita is a premier event that helps raise money to assist with scholarships for Ouachita women. Each year, the university serves an average of 1,700 students, more than half of whom are female. With more than 95% of Ouachita students qualifying for financial aid, the continued need for scholarships is great.

If you have questions about the 2024 luncheon, contact Carrie Roberson at robersonc@obu.edu or (870) 245-4278.

Since its inaugural event in November 2010, Stepping Up for Ouachita has raised more than $1,042,000 toward scholarships for women at Ouachita. Every year the university honors outstanding Ouachita women who have shown grace, leadership, integrity and faith over the years.

Below are the 2024 honorees and a list of our past honorees.

Susan DoshierSUSAN WILLIAMS DOSHIER

Susan (Williams) Doshier ’81 grew up on a dairy farm in Van Buren, Ark., raised by parents for whom two things were certain: the family was going to be actively involved in church, and Susan was going to college at Ouachita.

We had a large youth group in my church, and most of the kids went to Ouachita,” recalled Susan, who serves as chairman of the Dallas-based telecom and investment company D-Quattro. “I had full ride music scholarships to several universities but didn’t apply. I had never even been on a college campus, but I knew I was going to Ouachita. It was definitely the right decision!”

Susan earned a Bachelor of Science in Education degree at Ouachita, where she was a member of Sigma Alpha Iota international music fraternity for women and loved getting to travel to Europe as a member of Ouachita Singers, Chamber Singers and the Ouachi-Tones all-women’s ensemble. In fact, she says, her best memories and lifelong friendships were made in the School of Music. Among her favorite professors were the late Mary Shambarger, professor emerita of music; Dr. Charles Wright, professor emeritus of music; Dr. Tom Bolton, professor of music; and Dr. Hal Bass, professor emeritus of political science.

As a member of the Ouachita Student Foundation, Susan was on the committee that planned the first Tiger Tunes in 1974. OSF is an organization that’s important to her because it provides scholarships for students who might not otherwise be able to attend Ouachita.

“My husband was one of those students,” she said.

Susan met Wade Doshier ’80 at Ouachita; they married the day after she graduated. The couple has three daughters: Kristen and Kaitlyn Doshier, and Rachel (Doshier) Norton ’01. They live in Frisco, Texas, where they attend Stonebriar Community Church. She is also involved with Community Bible Study as an area director and an ambassador to Europe.

Passionate about improving the lives of orphans, Susan says her proudest accomplishment — apart from her family — is the Shining Stars Preschool for special needs children established by her family at the orphanage in Zhanjiang, China, where two of her daughters lived before they were adopted. “I’m so very thankful that God allowed my family to be a part of this huge blessing for the children,” she said.

Susan describes Ouachita as “a great place to find yourself, for your faith to become real in your life under the guidance of Christian professors and staff who don’t see you just as someone filling a chair in their class, but as a friend. It’s hard to really describe Ouachita to someone because it’s just so special, so different from other schools. Ouachita is a place where you feel you’re at home.”

 

Shari EdwardsSHARI DEAVER EDWARDS

Shari (Deaver) Edwards ’85 was introduced to Ouachita attending music camp there when she was a child; music brought her back for her first three years of college when she earned a voice and piano scholarship to attend.

“I’m enthusiastic about raising scholarship funds, both for female students through Stepping Up for Ouachita and through the Pruet School of Christian Studies,” said Shari, who is network coordinator for Arkansas Baptist Women at the Arkansas Baptist State Convention and an adjunct professor who teaches Ministry to Women at Ouachita. “Receiving scholarship funds was the determining factor for me to attend Ouachita, and I know the difference it can make for where a student chooses to attend college. I don’t want anyone to miss out on all that Ouachita offers!”

Shari began working on her Bachelor of Arts in journalism and public relations at Ouachita, where she participated in Tiger Tunes and the Miss OBU Pageant. She was a member of the EEE women’s social club and the Ouachi-Tones all-women’s ensemble, directed by the late Mary Shambarger, Ouachita professor emerita of music.

“Mary Shambarger impacted my Ouachita experience more than any other faculty or staff member,” Shari said. “She offered me an opportunity that forever changed my life. Along with making amazing memories, we shared with churches, business leaders, civic groups and many more about the excellence offered at Ouachita and the life-giving message of Christ.”

Those experiences reinforced for Shari the importance of serving others, and she has continued to prioritize service throughout her life in her work and at church. Shari and her husband, Andy Edwards ’83, have three sons — Jake ’13, John ’16 and Jason. Jake and his wife Leah ’14 are parents to Shari’s granddaughters Layla, Lainey and Lucy. The Edwardses are longtime members of Park Hill Baptist Church, North Little Rock, where Shari leads MomConnect, serves on the worship team, co-teaches a high school girls Sunday School class and is a consultant in the Women’s Ministry, which she helped start.

She found her mission investing in young women’s lives in a variety of ways and loves getting to see the results when God is working — from young moms finding encouragement and community through MomConnect to women learning to lead in their own churches.

“Being part of the Lifeway Women Trainer Team has been especially rewarding,” Shari said. “During the past four years, I’ve traveled to different parts of the country and interacted with amazing women at our leadership development conferences. Having the opportunity to equip and encourage women as they serve and lead in the local church and seeing the fruit that comes from it brings everything the Lord has done in my life full circle.”

 

Carol Miller GreshamCAROL MILLER GRESHAM

Carol Miller Gresham ’76 has a deep, lifelong connection to Ouachita. Her parents, Russell ’52 and Ina ’51 Miller, created in Carol her love for Ouachita and the Tiger when she was a very young girl.

Because her parents had instilled in her their teachings on missions and service, Carol was thrilled to be recruited by Dr. Ben Elrod to become a charter member of the Ouachita Student Foundation — playing a pivotal role in establishing the OSF theme of “students helping students” through student recruitment, fundraising and helping create OSF’s first signature event, Tiger Traks.

Now in its 50th year, OSF has provided more than $2.4 million in scholarships.

Named to Who’s Who Among American Colleges and Universities, Carol was also involved on campus as a member of the Chi Delta women’s social club, President’s Forum, Alpha Chi national college honor society and Concert Choir. Despite earning a Bachelor of Music Education degree, her entrepreneurial spark was ignited under the guidance of the late Dr. Bill Downs, professor emeritus of communications.

She went on to earn a Master of Business Administration degree and, in 1985, she started CMP Market Research working with national apartment developers; Little Rock Apartment Locators and Corporate Lodging; and R&C Rentals. Carol hired several Ouachita graduates during these years, which further strengthened her commitment to the university. She was also a founder of the Arkansas Apartment Association.

When Carol sold her companies in 1998, she and her husband, Rip, moved to Mountain Home. While serving as vice chancellor for development at Arkansas State University–Mountain Home, she acquired a grant from the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation that facilitated her work in helping families move out of poverty. She created Cornerstones for Success and dedicated herself to aiding families in gaining economic stability using the Bridges Out of Poverty curriculum, chaired the local hospital foundation board and was a founding member of the Mountain Home Education Foundation.

Since 2011, Carol and Rip have lived in Northwest Arkansas where Carol is a senior business broker for the CBI Team. They are actively involved in First Christian Church, Rogers, where they serve as deacons and Carol sings in the choir. Her commitment to service is evident through roles on the OSF Advisory Board, Rotary International and the boards of organizations including the Arkansas Association of Two-Year Colleges, National Council for Resource Development and the Rogers Chamber of Commerce.

In 2016, Carol was honored with an Alumni Milestone Award at Ouachita, which she describes as “the most solid Christian campus with excellent training, a friendly environment; a place you can easily feel at home and build lifetime friendships.”

 

Kathy RainwaterKATHY MITCHELL RAINWATER

Kathy (Mitchell) Rainwater might not have attended Ouachita, but Ouachita has been a constant in her life for more than 40 years.

Growing up in Ruston, La., Kathy was introduced to church by loving parents and grandmothers who exemplified how to live a life of faithful service. At her hometown college, Louisiana Tech University, Kathy earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in secondary education, pledged Sigma Kappa sorority and was a member of Angel Flight ROTC Auxiliary and the Wesley Foundation. She also took a ballroom dance class where she caught the eye of “the cutest boy in the room,” Mike Rainwater. Mike and Kathy married in 1976.

They moved to Arkansas, where Mike started a law practice and Kathy taught English and speech at Ridgeroad Junior High School in North Little Rock. She later taught the Arkansas Department of Education’s Arkansas Writing Project and provided teacher in-service instruction statewide. The Rainwaters joined Immanuel Baptist Church, kicking off a 40-year legacy of service together that has included teaching Sunday school to a variety of ages, teaching marriage and parenting classes, leading retreats and participating in missions projects in Turkey, Paraguay and Panama.

Kathy has also taught 5- and 6-year-olds in VBS every summer for 40 years and mentored young moms through the WINGS ministry. Now she works in the Immanuel City Center’s emergency dental clinic, praying with patients and organizing other volunteers to do the same.

Throughout the Rainwaters' 40 years at Immanuel, a common theme emerged.

“It seemed like all our sweet church friends attended Ouachita or wished they had,” Kathy recalled. “Their fond memories and continued connection struck a chord with us. Ouachita’s importance in the church, community and state was plain.”

Two men very close to the Rainwater family brought the worlds of Immanuel and Ouachita together for them: Dr. Rex Horne, former Ouachita president and Immanuel pastor, and Dr. Terry Carter, Vaught Professor of Christian Ministries, who has served Immanuel as interim pastor. Dr. Carter recruited Kathy to the Pruet School of Christian Ministries advisory board.

“Obviously, the School of Christian Ministries is my touchpoint for what I know about Ouachita,” Kathy said. “It’s vital in our state, nation and world to have trained candidates, spiritually led into Christian ministry, mentored by fine professors and administrators.”

The Rainwaters’ ties to Ouachita have also deepened as their family has grown. They have three sons: John and wife Sarah (Shepherd ’03) have three children, David and wife Rachel (Cashion) have three daughters, and Ben and wife Abigail (Benson) have two daughters. Abigail’s grandparents are legendary Ouachita football coach Buddy Benson and his wife, Janet.

“We love Ouachita,” Kathy said, “and we want to do our part to make sure it can continue its very important mission.”

JANET (MCCAIN) HUCKABEE

Janet (McCain) Huckabee served as First Lady of Arkansas from 1996 to 2007 alongside her husband, former Gov. Mike Huckabee. The couple met in elementary school in Hope, Ark., and dated into their time in college at Ouachita. They were married on May 25, 1974, and now have three adult children: John Mark, David and Sarah, who became the 47th governor of Arkansas in 2023.

Early in their marriage, Huckabee was diagnosed with spinal cancer, which left her unable to return to Ouachita. Near the end of her husband’s time as governor, she completed her undergraduate degree through John Brown University. Huckabee was an active member and two-term president of the Texarkana Parent Teacher Association and has worked as a substitute teacher, a pharmacist’s assistant and as a manager for a construction company, among other roles. She was an active campaigner in her husband’s various political pursuits.

While her husband was governor, one of Huckabee’s priorities was helping to modernize the Arkansas Governor’s Mansion. The subsequent renovation included the addition of a grand hall, later named the Janet M. Huckabee Grand Hall. Huckabee was inducted into the Arkansas Outdoor Hall of Fame after helping to pass Amendment 75, a sales tax that benefited the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, the Department of Arkansas Heritage, the Department of Parks and Tourism and the Keep Arkansas Beautiful Commission.

Outside of politics, Huckabee became known for her work with the American Red Cross, Samaritan’s Purse and Habitat for Humanity, which she served for more than 10 years on the international board. She led an effort to immunize children in Arkansas and visited every state health department site to promote immunizations against childhood diseases. She also has been an active volunteer in church activities and enjoys gardening, raising chickens and looking after two dogs and seven grandchildren.

 

GOV. SARAH (HUCKABEE) SANDERS

Gov. Sarah (Huckabee) Sanders is the youngest child of former Gov. Mike Huckabee and Janet Huckabee. The two made history as the first father and daughter to be governor of the same state. Sanders also is the youngest governor in the nation currently serving and Arkansas’ first woman governor.

A graduate of Little Rock Central High School, Sanders was a political science major at Ouachita. Named to the Homecoming Court and Who’s Who Among American Colleges & Universities, she served as president of the Ouachita Student Senate and was chosen Outstanding Senior Woman by faculty and staff.

Her involvement in presidential politics began in 2004 when she served as field coordinator in Ohio for Pres. George W. Bush’s re-election campaign. In 2008, she was national political director for her father’s presidential campaign and later served as his campaign manager during his 2016 run. She joined Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign as a senior adviser and transitioned to a role on the White House communications staff upon his election, eventually becoming the third woman, first mother and first Arkansan to serve as White House press secretary.

Sanders left the White House in 2019 and returned to Arkansas, where she announced her candidacy for governor in 2021. After her time in Washington D.C., she was a Fox News contributor and served on the Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board. Sanders is the author of the New York Times bestseller Speaking for Myself and was recognized in Fortune and TIME magazines’ “40 under 40.”

Nancy BentonNANCY HASSELL BENTON

Nancy (Hassell) Benton ’83 grew up in Little Rock and North Little Rock until the 10th grade, when her dad became pastor of First Baptist Church, Stuttgart. Even though her parents were graduates of Baylor University, they had a strong love for Ouachita and were proud of Nancy’s decision to transfer to Ouachita in 1980. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Education degree; classes toward her minor in accounting gave her the opportunity to know the late Dr. Margaret Wright, professor emerita of accounting and the 2011 Stepping Up honoree.

At the time, Nancy says, she was struggling with her faith, her decisions and her grades, and she learned a lot from Dr. Wright. Nancy considers Dr. Wright a mentor who instilled in her students a strong work ethic and a high standard of professionalism.

After graduation, Nancy lived and worked in Little Rock, where she met her husband, Murray, at church. In June 1987, the couple married and moved to Helena. Murray worked for Mid-South Sales Inc., a company his grandfather founded and his parents owned. The Bentons moved Mid-South Sales and their family to Jonesboro in 1998; Murray ran the company and Nancy raised the couple’s three children, Murray Jr., Meredith and Maggie.

Murray, Jr., and his wife, Dr. Sarah Holland Benton, are parents to daughter Holland and are expecting a second child in Summer 2022. Murray works for Outdoor Properties and Sarah is an audiologist. Meredith has two undergraduate degrees in education and nursing and owns her own wedding photography business. Maggie, former Miss Arkansas, and her husband, Andrew Counce, live in Little Rock where Maggie is the junior high girls pastor at Fellowship Bible Church and Andrew teaches high school math and coaches 7th grade boys basketball at Little Rock Christian Academy.

Nancy says that serving on the Board of Trustees at Ouachita has been an incredible honor and blessing in her life. “Witnessing each and every person work together for God’s glory to make Ouachita the best it can be is an incredibly gratifying experience,” she says. “Also, seeing the Lord’s hand guide and direct the finances, building projects and the growth of many programs and majors, all during the pandemic, has been miraculous and humbling. I can’t think of a better way to serve and give than through Ouachita.”

Nancy also serves on the board of the Arkansas Children’s Hospital Foundation, the Baptist Memorial Healthcare Foundation of Memphis and The Community Foundation of NEA Baptist Hospital, Jonesboro.

The Bentons attend Central Baptist Church, Jonesboro, where they taught the young married Sunday School class and Murray served as a deacon.

 

Toni ThrashTONI KITTERMAN THRASH

Born and raised in Jonesboro to a family of educators, and having worked at her mother’s daycare and kindergarten for many years, Toni found the teaching profession to be a natural and joyful trajectory for her.

When Toni was growing up, her family attended First Baptist Church, Jonesboro. She says that coming from a family that loved the Lord and gave to the church and others is one of the greatest gifts she’s received. Seeing her dad’s white envelope in his hand each Sunday morning, demonstrating the importance of giving to the church and helping others, made a lifetime impression upon her. She gave her life to Christ at age 11 at Mt. Zion Baptist Church Camp, outside Jonesboro.

Toni earned a Bachelor of Science in Education degree in early childhood education from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and a master’s degree in educational leadership from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. She taught for 34 years in the private and public school sectors in Arkansas, retiring in 2020. A highlight of her teaching career was being named the 2013 PTA Arkansas Teacher of the Year.

Toni became a Ouachitonian when she married Tom Thrash (’77) in 1981. Tom played football at Ouachita and credits his success in life to Ouachita and Ouachita’s legendary Coach Buddy Benson. The couple’s many investments in Ouachita include their gifts of the turf field and electronic scoreboard at Cliff Harris Stadium.

After marrying and moving to Little Rock, the Thrashes joined Immanuel Baptist Church, where Toni spent many years teaching children’s Sunday school and serving in the nursery. When Toni wasn’t teaching, she also volunteered through the Junior League of Little Rock and served on the boards of the Arkansas Heart Association and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

The Thrashes have two sons, Thomas and Adam. Thomas and his wife, Morgan, are parents to daughters Tyler (4) and Tommie Rose (1). Adam and his wife, Isabelle, have two sons, Johnny (4) and Bobby (1). Toni says that being “Honey” to her four grandchildren is one of life’s greatest blessings.

Sarah is the daughter of Rev. Frank (MA ’60) and Carolyn Southerland (’58) Shell; all her siblings graduated from Ouachita, as well. She became a Christian at age 7 at First Baptist Church of Walnut Ridge. She met her future husband, Jeff (’78), when he purchased a car dealership there in 1981. The couple moved to El Dorado in 1990, where they raised their children. They sold the dealerships in 2021 and relocated to Fayetteville. Both are still involved with Citizens Bank, co-founded by Sarah’s grandfather and headquartered in Batesville.

She has also served on the Ouachita Development Council, the Arkansas Committee for the National Museum of Women in the Arts, the Smithsonian Curiosity Council, the El Dorado Service League and the El Dorado Boys and Girls Club. She is a patron of the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts, Crystal Bridges and the Smithsonian Institution and serves as a trustee at Williams Baptist University. Sarah is a Master Gardener, plays the piano when nobody’s listening and annoys French people by practicing her college major. She has been nourished and ministered through First Baptist Church of El Dorado. Sarah and Jeff are members of First Baptist Church, Fayetteville.

The Teagues are parents to Justin (’09), David (and wife Sara) and Jeff II. She especially appreciates Ouachita mentors Fran Coulter, Bill and Snookie Dixon, Betty McCommas and her Carl Goodson Honors Program professors. She recognizes relationships—with her family, EEE pledge sisters and longtime friends—as one of her life’s greatest treasures.

Growing up in Little Rock and as a member of Immanuel Baptist Church, it was a “given” that Sherrie would attend Ouachita. Much of her family – her parents, aunts, uncle and sister, as well as her brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law all attended Ouachita. During her sophomore year, Sherrie met her husband, Paul (’75), who played baseball and football for the Tigers.

Livia DunklinLivia Dunklin is surrounded by Ouachitonians in each generation of her family. Her father-in-law, George Dunklin, Sr., was a member of Ouachita’s Board of Trustees, and her daughter Lauren and son-in-law Hunter Heird are 2014 Ouachita graduates.

During Lauren’s Ouachita years, Livia and her husband, George, could be seen at most every football game watching Lauren cheer on the Tigers and loved watching Lauren and EEE women’s social club in Tiger Tunes every year. The new press box at Cliff Harris Stadium was provided by the Dunklin family in honor of George Sr. and his service to the university. Livia said she believes that the smaller campus Ouachita offers radiates a feeling of community and family.

“It is like being home even for someone who didn’t even go there,” she said. “You are always sorry when you have to leave.”

After watching Lauren’s experience at Ouachita, Livia believes it was the best place to prepare Lauren for real-world experiences through the opportunities, challenges, service opportunities and the small faculty-to-student ratio Ouachita provides. She noted that a favorite Ouachita moment was seeing the professors stand for every student walking across the stage as they received their diplomas at Lauren’s graduation.

Livia was born and raised in Manhattan and later moved to Memphis, Tenn. Livia attended Memphis State University and was working at the Racquet Club of Memphis, where she met her future husband, George, a member of the Memphis State tennis team and racket stringer for the club. Livia and George have three daughters, Megan, Hillary, and Lauren.

George was the past President and Chairman of Ducks Unlimited, Inc., which kept them both busy for several years. George also is founder and owner of Five Oaks Duck Lodge near Stuttgart, and it has been a family affair. In the off season, Livia helps with planning events at the lodge.

Livia’s faithfulness to the Lord is seen through her strong heart to serve children. She has served through Easter Seals, Arkansas Children’s Hospital and her local church. On Monday nights, Livia also enjoys Bible study alongside other sisters in Christ, which includes several Ouachita alumni.
 

Betty TollettBetty Tollett was introduced to Ouachita through her children, Terri and Gary. Terri is a 1984 graduate and serves as a member of the Ouachita Board of Trustees. She and her husband, Jimmy, are the parents of two children, Tracey (’15) and Nathan (fs ’14). Gary is a 1989 graduate, played basketball under legendary Coach Bill Vining and serves on Ouachita’s President’s Advisory Council. Gary and his wife, Michele (Rector f’89), have four sons: Trenton, Travis, Turner and Truitt.

“I feel this world needs Ouachita,” Betty said. “It is a bright light in this dark world. I am so glad that my children and some of my grandchildren attended Ouachita.”

Betty Ruth Blew Tollett grew up in Farmington, Ark., and attended church “every time the doors were open.” It is no surprise that she met her husband, Leland, at Calvary Baptist Church in Fayetteville. Betty earned a degree in elementary education from the University of Arkansas.

Betty is a gracious servant. Simply put, she has spent her life pouring herself into her church, her husband, her children, her grandchildren, and her community. In addition to teaching elementary school, Betty taught third grade Sunday School for more than 25 years at Cross Church.

During Leland’s more than 50-year career at Tyson Foods, Leland helped lead the company from one processing plant to the world’s largest producer of chicken, beef and pork, and second-largest food production company in the world. When he was inducted into the Arkansas Business Hall of Fame in 2011, he edified Betty for being the perfect corporate wife while he was building Tyson Foods. Her strong faith, cooking skills, uncanny ability to remember people’s names and capacity to love others has served countless people well.

Betty and Leland have always attributed their happiness and success to the Lord. As parents, they taught their children to honor the Lord, to respect others, to live a life of kindness and to be humble. Their strong faith has sheltered them through difficult times, too, including Betty’s breast cancer journey. Betty is a survivor and served as the honorary co-chairman of the 2008 Susan G.

Kathy WhisenhuntKathy Whisenhunt entered the Ouachita family through marriage. She married Gene Whisenhunt (OBU ’83) who had served on the Board of Trustees, the Hickingbotham School of Business Executive Advisory Council and currently chairs the President’s Advisory Committee. Through her husband, she was engaged in Ouachita in many ways and grew to love the school. Kathy and Gene sent all three of their children to Ouachita.

Kathy’s early childhood was in Texarkana until her family moved to Little Rock when she was a teenager. After completion of her education she joined Allstate Insurance and enjoyed a successful career until she started a family. At that time, Kathy felt a clear calling to be at home for her family. Since that time, she has served as a dedicated mother and wife.

Kathy has a heart to serve others. At Geyer Springs First Baptist Church (where she and Gene met), she served in numerous areas including the music ministry to children, Awana, Sunday School, choir, the coffee shop, numerous youth trips and several search committees. She served many years as a volunteer at Arkansas Children’s Hospital and also at Baptist Health Hospital. However, much of Kathy’s service goes unnoticed as she quietly meets the needs of many others behind the scenes when they have times to celebrate or are in times of need. Her greatest fulfillment is when she can serve others.

Kathy’s greatest pride is her family, which includes Haley (‘12) and husband Barry (’10), Mary (’13) and husband Bubby (’13), and Jared (’15). She loves her grandsons, Hayes and Noah, who will be joined by another grandchild this year.

“I am very blessed with a wonderful husband who has a love for Ouachita that very nearly exceeds his love for me.  Together, we enjoy the blessing of spreading the news about Ouachita wherever and whenever we can. We are so thankful that we can provide some financial assistance to Ouachita students and hope that those endeavors will bear fruit far into Ouachita’s future.”

Growing up in Piggott, Arkansas, Molly was raised in a single parent home. Her father, Lowell GoForth, served honorably in WWII, losing his life in 1945 when Molly was just 3 years old. “I was greatly loved by my mother and grandparents, I had a happy life growing up in the small town of Piggott.” In 1960, Molly enrolled at Ouachita. “I don’t really remember 'choosing' Ouachita, but as Mother had attended the halls of OBC, I was just always sure I would follow her right into Cone-Bottoms Hall. And that I did.”

In 1964, Molly met and married her husband of now 48 years.  “My time at Ouachita was filled with many happy memories. I made lifelong friends. Of the three different roommates I was privileged to have over the time of four years, we four are still fast friends with which I communicate regularly.”

After receiving her BA in Sociology, Molly felt her calling was to be with family. “I was employed by the office of the Ladue Board of Education (St. Louis, Mo.) until the birth of our first daughter.  I have been privileged to fulfill my heartfelt dream of becoming a full-time housewife and mother to Laura and Jennifer.  I am still thankful, daily, that I was granted this opportunity.”

“Our years in Bald Knob have been rewarding, as we have served the community with a business that has benefited the citizens of Bald Knob.” Molly is very active in the community, serving on many boards throughout the years.  She currently serves on the board of Friends for Life, a White County not-for-profit Christ-centered organization that ministers to individuals who face unplanned pregnancy.  Molly is also active in the Bald Knob Garden Club, serving as President twice; she is Past President of the Bald Knob Country Club and has served on the Board of Directors for Citizens State Bank.

 Sharon HeflinA member of the Ouachita class of 1967, Sharon Heflin and her family have been faithful and generous supporters of Ouachita Baptist University. Sharon grew up in Little Rock, where she graduated from Little Rock Central High School in 1964. She married Johnny Heflin (OBU class of 1967) the summer after they graduated from Ouachita.

Marc and his wife, Billie (’94), are the parents of two daughters, Grace and Sarah.

The Heflins have been gracious benefactors of Ouachita. Heflin Plaza was dedicated in 2010 in memory of Johnny Heflin, former chairman of the Ouachita Board of Trustees and a prominent Little Rock businessman, and in honor of the Heflin family. During the dedication service, Sharon told the crowd, “There are many aspects of Ouachita that we could point to as important in our lives. However, with us it comes down to the simple statement, ‘Ouachita means the world to our family.’

“Ouachita has helped us to provide a world of opportunities for our family and many others,” she added. “We are thankful to be able to support Ouachita as she continues to support so many.”

In addition to funding for Heflin Plaza, other major projects underwritten by the Heflin family include the Heflin Tennis Center, the Jay and Lynn Heflin Chair of Business and the Heflin Family Scholarship. Sharon also has served as a member of the Ouachita Baptist University Development Council.

During her years as a Ouachita student, Sharon was Homecoming Queen, cheerleader captain, treasurer of the EEEs and a member of Who’s Who and Alpha Chi. She graduated cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts degree in business. She and Johnny worked together for several years at Terminix, a family-owned business.  In recent years, she has worked with Bird and Bear Medical, Inc., a medical and respiratory equipment company established in 2001 by Johnny, Jay and Marc Heflin.

Always willing to give back to the community, Sharon’s vast community service leadership roles include serving as president of the Baptist Health Foundation Board, president of the Little Rock Central High School Alumni Board, vice president of the Alzheimer Arkansas Board and 2010 co-chair of Art and Soul for Easter Seals of Arkansas. She also is president emeritus of the Arkansas Hospice Foundation Board and has served on a number of other local and statewide boards.

According to Ouachita President Rex M. Horne, Jr., “The Heflin name and the Heflin family are such an integral part of everything good and noble that Ouachita Baptist University is all about. … They are advocates for Ouachita. They are encouragers to those of us who serve here. They are enablers to the students who attend here.”

For those reasons and more, it is a privilege for Ouachita Baptist University to honor Sharon Heflin at the university’s inaugural “Stepping Up for Ouachita” women’s luncheon in recognition of her life of outstanding dedication and service to her alma mater, her family and the community.
