Sharon was a hard-working mom, who eventually owned and operated a successful carpet and furniture steam cleaning business. She is most noted for her job as a proud and great mom of five children! She was also thrilled to be Grandma to six grandchildren! She will be remembered for her deep love for her family, friendships, her outgoing fun personality, her true beauty, her big giving heart, being the “fun” mom, creativeness, and let’s not forget, she could out dance anyone on the dance floor!

Grateful for having shared in Sharon’s life is her three sons and two daughters: David “Duke” Larson of Jamestown, ND, Troy (Jodi) Larson of Cooperstown, ND, Leslee (Bruce) Bonebright of Sauk Rapids, MN, Trent Larson of Fargo, ND, and Tara Larson of Aberdeen, SD; six grandchildren: Bailee, Bennett, Aubree, Bodie, Brylee and Brenna; two sisters: Niece Koss and Kim Parmely of Sioux Falls, SD; and many nieces and nephews.

Sharon is preceded in death by her father, Leo; her mother, Velma; her sisters: Janeen LaBau and Vickie Herrera; her brother-in-law, Dr. Mario Herrera; her maternal and paternal grandparents; and nephew, Brad Fernholz.

Sharon also made her mark & stole the hearts of the staff at Eventide Nursing Home in Jamestown. Our family would like to sincerely thank Eventide staff for showing our mom so much love, respect, care, and treating her like family. We would also like to thank medical staff involved with mom’s care, Eddy Funeral Home, and of course all the love and support from family and friends. We will miss our mom dearly.
