Sharlene Krohmer, lovingly known by many as “everyone’s grandma,” passed away peacefully this morning, leaving behind a legacy of warmth, laughter, and unconditional love.
“It’s with heavy heart that I announce that my Sharly K. got her Angel Wings this morning,” her beloved husband, Roy, posted to Facebook. “When I went up to see her she looked so at peace … She hasn’t looked like that for weeks. We have been a team for 57 years together and 54 years married. I will miss her so much. Thank you everyone for your love and support for her through this terrible disease … Much love to you all.”
She had a gift for making everyone feel special—especially the children she worked with at school, who were drawn to her caring heart and gentle nature.
Sharlene was a devoted and loving wife, the proud mother of two daughters, the cherished grandmother of five grandchildren, and a beloved great-grandmother. Her family was her world, and her love for them was unwavering.
If you ever heard a joyful, unmistakable laugh echo through a room, you knew Sharlene was near. Her laughter was as recognizable as her kindness — comforting, genuine, and full of life. It was just one of the many ways she brought happiness to those around her.
Sharlene will be deeply missed by all who knew her, but the love and joy she shared will continue to live on in the hearts of her family, friends, and the countless children whose lives she touched.
