Sharon Kay Aase (Amundson), 78, of Northwood, Iowa, died on Friday, June 18, 2021, at Lake Mills Care Center under hospice care. Funeral services at the First Lutheran Church in Northwood with Rev. Becky Sogge officiating.
Sharon was born on March 26, 1943, at Naeve Hospital in Albert Lea, Minnesota, the daughter of Ray and Juliet (Overland) Amundson.
Sharon enjoyed people and had an amazing sense of humor. She had her own beautiful, crazy, and unique ways, from her impeccable taste in design and fashion, to her crazy phrases.
Sharon graduated in 1961 from Albert Lea, Minnesota. She married in 1969 and to that union a child was born, Debra Kay Wolff. They later divorced.
Sharon met Steve Merle Aase. They were married on August 13, 1977, and a year later moved to the farm. Sharon cherished the farm, the animals, the fresh air, the privacy. She loved everything about the country.
Sharon did a lot of work around the farm, and helped Steve in anyway she could. She'd do all sorts of chores; castrate pigs, run skid loaders – you name it. She loved to go on saw dust runs with Steve.
Steve died unexpectedly in 2006. Part of her went with him. Now they are reunited and dancing in heaven.
Sharon had a tremendous work ethic. She was strong, dedicated, and resilient. Sharon would do many jobs men could not. Sharon was very punctual, she was never late, if anything she was always early.
Sharon worked several years waitressing, which is one job that she said she loved doing. Later she then worked very hard for 18 years at Wilsons/Farmstead in Albert Lea. She did several jobs there, hog kill, castrating, ectc. But weighing bacon for the longest. Sharon worked for 10 years at the Lutheran Retirement Home in Northwood in the laundry department. Sharon then retired and continued to work on the farm with Steve.
Sharon had many hobbies and had a green thumb. She loved to garden, and had lots of flowers and plants both inside and outside of the house.
Sharon loved spending time with her family and friends. She attended her daughter's sports and dance activities and loved to attend her grandchildren's extra-curricular events; sports, dance concerts, etc.
Sharon and Steve enjoyed going for rides in the pickup, listening to their favorite country music, and stopping somewhere for supper. She enjoyed going to thrift stores and finding treasures. She had several spoiled farm dogs throughout the years, Tasha being the last.
She is preceded in death by her parents Ray and Juliet; her brother, Robert; sister, Carol; husband, Steve; aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
Surviving are her daughter, Debra McDole; grandchildren, Nathaniel Wolff and Natasha McDole; nephew and Godson, Ray Amundson; nephew, Robert White; nieces, Susan Deer, and Ann Amundson; several cousins; mother-in-law, Marcella (Sally) Aase and many, many friends.
