After meeting Maurice “Dick” Ueland at a dance, the couple was married on August 22, 1964, at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church. Since Sharon did not drive, the couple worked together over the years for a few different printing companies. Sharon enjoyed fishing and spending summer vacations with her family at resorts. She was a hard worker who enjoyed gardening, yardwork, and cleaning the house. She loved hunting for deals at thrift stores and dollar stores. Sharon loved her family, and she was happy to call and keep in touch to keep everyone connected. She always saw the best in everyone, making her a caring and loving mother, grandmother, sister, and friend.
