Shari loved spending time in her flower garden and had flowers all around the house. She was a Minnesota Twins and Vikings fan and she loved Christmas. She loved decorating her home and baking for Christmas, but especially loved having family around. She took great pride in her appearance and was always dressed to the nines. Dachshund’s had a special place in Shari’s heart and she loved all of her dogs dearly. Out of all of her loves, she loved her husband, Dave most of all. She enjoyed their time together taking rides in the pickup and going on walks. She will be greatly missed.

You have my deepest sympathy and many thoughts and prayers. Shari was a wonderful woman! I worked with her at HSC and she was always upbeat and so friendly. I enjoyed riding along when she took patients for appointments and discharges. I hope and pray that you find comfort knowing that she is in Heaven and reunited with her parents and Chris.
