A Celebration of Life will be held at 1 pm on June 10th, 2023. Family and friends are welcome at her home anytime after 11am, before we gather at the Memorial Garden near her property at 1pm to share stories of her life with tearful joy and say our farewells.
Born in Austin MN, she was the fourth of nine siblings. She attended Austin High School, but earned her GED later in life and then went on to earn a BS in Accounting at Bemidji State University. Sharon enjoyed doing taxes at the Senior Center in Bemidji and being an election judge for her township.
She is survived by six siblings; three children, Scott Schied of Austin MN, Susan Wibben (Marty) of Becida MN, and Steven Schied (Patricia) of Becida MN; eight grandchildren; fourteen great-grandchildren; and four great-great-grandchildren.
Sharon was a fighter and was winning the battle with cancer, but succumbed to complications of pneumonia and sepsis.
Sharon was preceded in death by her parents, Harold and Lucille Hinkle; one younger brother
Norman (Forever 19) who served in Vietnam; one older brother Eugene (Bud) who also died of cancer; her daughter-in- law Amy Schied; and her husband of 62 years, Kenneth.
A Celebration of Life will be held in late spring.
Please send memorials to cancer research or plant a tree in her honor.
