Sharon Carol Crawford

On November 15, 2022, Sharon “Sharry” Crawford got her wings and went to walk with the angels. She was 73 years old.  Sharon was born on February 15, 1949 in Duluth, Minnesota.  She is preceded in death by her parents, Reidar and Ruby Lindgard.

Mama, grandma, great-grandma, sister and friend.

However, many people considered Shar Bear or Mama Bear or Mother Hen their surrogate Mom and Nana.  Her smile was genuine and she loved people.

At 12 she moved to Burbank, California. As a teenager, she moved to Sacramento and in 1986, she moved to Placerville.   Upon graduating from Encina High School, 1967, she worked at housekeeping. She was a bookkeeper and was office manager for car and motorhome dealerships.  She is retired, she doesn't cook for one, she cooks for family and neighbors, go big or go home.

Sharon loved music, both singing and playing.  The accordion, organ and piano, but she couldn’t read the notes. Play it for me she would say, once heard,  she would play it back for you.  She enjoys the dune buggy, tents to motorhomes, jeepin’ and watching the granddaughters playing softball. She loves her dog, Jake.  She cooks for the family, friends, neighbors and strangers.

Sharon is survived by her daughter Lori Crawford, granddaughters Robin Crawford and Hannah Crawford, great grandsons Drew Wells and Boss Humes, sister Debra Currie, brother Joe Lindgard, nieces  Monique, Melanie and nephews Timothy and Anton.
