Sharon Kay Schuett

Mrs. Sharon Kay Schuett, of Reedsburg, Wisconsin, was born on August 13, 1947 in Richland Center, Richland Co., WI, to the late Elwin Barney and Lucille Alvira (Scott) Tyler. Sharon went to be with Jesus at age 74, on September 26, 2021 at Reedsburg Area Medical Center, Reedsburg, WI. She graduated from Webb High School in Reedsburg and was lovingly known to her classmates as “Shorty.” On June 11, 1966, she was united in marriage to Robert James Fry at the Church of God in Reedsburg. To their union they were blessed with five daughters: Michelle, Peggy, Bonnie, Dawn, and Sheri. Later she married her lifelong friend, Stephen Lane Schuett on March 23, 1991, in Nashua, Iowa.

She spent all of her life in Wisconsin between Reedsburg, Lake Delton, Baraboo, and Mauston. Sharon was a longtime member of the Reedsburg Church of God and continued to be so up until her passing. She spent her early adult years as a nursery and Sunday school teacher. Sharon enjoyed spending time with her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, siblings, and other family. She loved spending time planting flowers, tending her houseplants, doing crafts and spending time with family. She will forever be remembered as a loving mother, daughter, sister, wife, grandmother, and great-grandmother.

She is survived by daughters: Michelle (Chris) Ryan of Portage, WI., Peggy (Anthony) Dahler of Reedsburg, WI., Dawn (Pat Miller) Laridaen of Wonewoc, WI., and Sheri Hunt of Comanche, OK. Sharon is further survived by three sisters; Shirley Tobey, Gloria Cayse and Marilyn Bohn; grandchildren; Stephanie, Peter, Donald, Ryan, Douglas, Melinda, Barbara, Steven, Crystal, Ross, Kristen and Billy; great-grandchildren: Draven, Franchesca, Harley, Shayna, Guinevere, Audrianna, Carrick, Garrett, Brydan, Weston and Jaymison, as well as numerous nieces and nephews. 

She was preceded in passing by her parents, Elwin & Lucille; her brothers, Raymond and Allen Tyler; sisters: Evelyn Janisch and Betty Smith; daughter, Bonnie Fry; grandchildren: Bonnie Hagen and Logan Laridaen; and great grandchild; Paige Wylesky.

We would like to thank Agrace Hospice and the Reedsburg Hospital staff for the care and compassion they showed her in her final days. As well as the loving care and companionship from her granddaughter, Stephanie and her sister, Marilyn since her husband Stephen’s passing.

Per Sharon’s wishes she is being cremated and her ashes will be buried along with her husband Stephen’s at the Spring Grove Cemetery in Wisconsin Dells, WI.
