Born on January 26, 1948, in Muscatine, IA, to Walter and Betty (Opelt) Sellers, Sharon grew up with a vibrant spirit and a love for family. Known for her sharp mind and tireless work ethic, Sharon built a successful career as an accountant, working with companies such as; Town and Country Lumber, Adams Door Company, QCA Pool and Spa, Fred’s Towing and E&H Restoration, before retiring in 2020. 

Beyond her career, Sharon was deeply devoted to her family. She cherished every moment spent with her daughter, Lisa (Tom) Boynton of DeWitt, IA, and took immense pride in her grandchildren, Ashlee (Lance) Bell of Long Grove, IA, and Alixx Boynton of Princeton, IA. Her great-grandchildren—Lawson, Hayzell and Myra—brought boundless joy to her life, and she reveled in showering them with love and affection. 

Sharon’s passion for life was evident in her favorite pastimes. She loved shopping trips to Von Maur, where she had a knack for finding the best deals. She found her greatest happiness in the joys of family gatherings, especially watching her great grandchildren grow. She also loved meeting her friends at “the boat” and could usually be found at the penny slots. Sanibel and Anna Maria, Florida will always hold a special place in her heart. She enjoyed walking the beach, picking up shells and countless laughs with The Florida Girls. 

She is survived by her daughter, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nephews, Kelly Sellers and Bryan Sellers, and her best friends of 70 years, Maggie Lake and Patti Wagner. Sharon is preceded in death by her parents, her beloved brother, David Sellers, and dear friend, Meda Keeney.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorials be directed to the family for the future education of Sharon’s great-grandchildren, a testament to her enduring love and hope for their bright futures.
