Sharon began her career as a CNA/Med Aide/Physical Therapist in 1968 at Woodrest Nursing Home in Walker, Minnesota, where she stayed for more than twenty-eight years. She also enjoyed an exciting career playing softball in local leagues, and bowling during the winter months, where she won several trophies. Sharon also marched for the Tigerettes, Akeley's local VFW Women's Auxiliary. She remained in Akeley after retiring, where she found contentment living a relaxed rural lifestyle.
