From her childhood in Wauwatosa, then as a Kappa at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, to her days in Glencoe, Illinois and Mequon, Sharon acquired and maintained long-lasting friendships, many of whom she called and connected with daily. Sharon found joy in the simpler things in life but also had a drive and an ambition to learn and grow, excelling at whatever endeavor she pursued from being a fashion model in the 70's working for Marshall Fields in Chicago, to being a docent at Milwaukee Art Museum, and as a realtor earning Rookie of the Year and Million-dollar Sales club 3 years in a row. Sharon loved and deeply appreciated art, beauty, and the finer things in life. She was a beautiful woman inside and out.
