Sharon was born Feb. 7, 1949, in Grand Island, the daughter of LeRoy Henry and Margery Ann (Rose) Buhrman, during the “Blizzard of ’49.”

The family moved to a small house in St. Libory when Sharon was about 4 years old. Sharon was the oldest of 13 children, and the family shared a very happy life together. She attended St. Libory’s Catholic School, where she was taught by the nuns through the eighth grade. She then attended Northwest High School in Grand Island, graduating with the class of 1967. She then attended Hastings Community College for one year.

She married Bruce Antonson in June 1969. Shortly afterward, Bruce was stationed with the United States Army in Stuttgart, Germany. Their daughter, Christina Elizabeth, was born in April 1970.

After returning to the United States and buying a house, they welcomed their son, Eric Lee, in March 1973. Sharon’s children were her whole world, and they did everything together. She and Bruce divorced in 1986. Sharon worked in customer service at the Holiday Inn in Grand Island and later for the City of St. Paul from 1999 until retiring in 2014.

In September 2006, she married Dave Boehle of St. Libory, and they shared a beautiful and happy life together. She was also blessed with two grandsons, Shea and Colby Miotke. Sharon attended as many of their school and sporting events as possible, which she greatly enjoyed.

Sharon enjoyed many things in her life. She loved traveling, gardening, reading, oil painting and hosting family gatherings for brunches, dinners and holiday celebrations. Gardening was a little bit of heaven to Sharon, and she spent much time caring for her vegetables and flowers.

She is survived by her husband, Dave Boehle; children, Christina Miotke and Eric and Jennifer (Price) Antonson; grandsons, Shea and Colby Miotke; daughters and sons-in-law, Tiffany Boehle and Matt Dean and Cashmere Boehle and Steve Weeks; brothers, Dan Buhrman, Ed Buhrman, Steve Buhrman and Joseph Buhrman; sisters, Becky Schleicher, Laurie Hovland, Mary Bejot, Kathy Rathel, Monica Fries, Rose Fuss and Teresa Nowak; and numerous nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents; infant brother, Michael J. Buhrman; and sister, Anne Marie Buhrman.
