In Memory of Sharon K. Ogren


December 3, 1947 - February 9, 2023

Sharon Kay Ogren, age 75, of Spooner, WI, passed away from a short battle with cancer on Thursday, February 9, 2023, at Marshfield Medical Center in Rice Lake, WI.

She was born on December 3, 1947, in Chippewa Falls, WI, to the daughter of Robert and Virginia (Wajek) Novak.

She was united in marriage to David P. Ogren on May 29, 1982, at Faith Lutheran Church in Spooner, WI.

Sharon was a strong and sassy woman with an incredible heart. She fiercely protected the ones she cared about and offered this world an immense amount of love and laughter. She was a great cook and enjoyed preparing large home-cooked meals that brought family and friends together, especially her famous spaghetti. Sharon worked in the medical field for many years, including as a physical therapist aide and nursing home activities assistant. She was a compassionate caregiver with a kind touch and a light that shined so bright, that she made others feel safe around her. She also had a special place in her heart for animals. She enjoyed traveling with her husband and was always up for a good road trip. She and her family enjoyed many activities together, including pontoon rides, ATVing, camping, finding good deals at garage sales, and tending to her many flower beds. Sharon loved enjoying a good brandy drink around the campfire, and admiring the many bird friends and flying squirrels that visited her feeders.

She is survived by her beloved husband, David P. Ogren of Spooner, WI; her mother, Virginia Novak of Spooner, WI; her children, Michael Waite of Spooner, WI, Kim Grap (Mark) of Spooner, WI, and Gina Krueger (Jeff) of Trego, WI; step-children, Melissa Clamer (Mike) of Stone Lake, WI, and Kane Ogren (Lauren) of Fayetteville, NC; her grandchildren, Kaila, Austen, and Morgan; her great-grandchild, Brantley; her step-grandchildren, Lacy, Jordan, Haylee, and Cole; step-great-grandchild, Coy; her brothers, Dennis Novak (Beth) of Spooner, WI and Steve Novak (Carol) of Shell Lake, WI; and many nieces, nephews and dear friends.

She is preceded in death by her father, Robert Novak, and her grandson, Blake Krueger.

A celebration of life will take place privately.
