Sharon Mary Hurskainen Sherman Obituary (1938 - 2007)

“Beloved Grandmother” The most generous person and finest grandmother left us on March 31, 2007. Living became a struggle, for our wife, mother and grandmother these past few months. While we are deeply saddened, we are relieved that she is at peace and whole once more. Sharon’s home was always open for a visit, a meal or a bed, no advance notice necessary. She will be greatly missed by many. Sharon was born September 19, 1938 in Price, Utah to Emil and Frances “Beam” Maretta Hurskainen. Sharon married Orlo “Val” Sherman on March 1, 1958 in Price, Utah.
