Sybil Gaskill

of Harrison, AR

July 5, 2023

Martha, better known as Sybil Gaskill, ran her race, kept the course, and reached her goal of a home in heaven. She passed away in her home on July 5, 2023, with family surrounding her with loving arms.

Sybil was the fourth child of seven born to Ernest and Carrie Kimball Anderson of Waldo (Lamartine), Arkansas. She was preceded in death by all her siblings; her first husband, Edward Sewell, and second husband, James Gaskill, both ministers for the Church of Christ. She also suffered the loss of a son, Stephen Sewell to MS.

She is survived by three daughters, Teresa Barrett and husband, Allen, Trudie Young and husband, Doug and Susie Garland and husband, Courtney all of Harrison, and a son, Hugh Gaskill and wife, Michelle of Elk Grove, CA.

Sybil has nine grandchildren, Stephen Barrett and wife, Jennifer, Sheila James and husband, Jeff, Taesha Winford and husband, Chalin, Andee Farmer and Alex Farmer all of Harrison; Jonathan Sewell and wife, Lauren of Nashville, TN, Jacob Sewell of Danville, Kentucky, Tia and Marvin Lopez of Grand Junction, CO and Dalton Young of Kansas City, MO. She was also blessed with nine great-grandchildren whom she loved dearly.

Sybil worked with her first husband in the mission field in Ecuador and Spain. She was a servant in the work of the Lord in all parts of her life and was a dedicated member of the Church of Christ.

She was the sunshine of her family and could make the best coconut cream pies. She loved to sing and had a song to fit every occasion.


Sybil was laid to rest in a private family graveside service. Visitation was Sunday, July 9, 2023.


A sincere and special thanks to Legacy Hospice. Their care was unsurpassed. A special thanks to Dr. Chitsey and NARMC for their medical care.
