Sharon Ellen Talich, 56, passed away peacefully on February 13, 2026, in Ft. Collins, Colorado, surrounded by her loving family. She faced the challenges of Parkinson's disease with courage and grace.
Born on May 12, 1969, in Sundance, Wyoming, Sharon was the daughter of Dennis and Barbara Talich. She grew up in Pine Bluffs, Wyoming, where she graduated from Pine Bluffs High School in 1987. Following high school, she attended Chadron State College and later earned her nursing degree from LCCC in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Throughout her career, Sharon devoted herself to caring for others, working in oncology, senior care, and pediatrics—fields that reflected her compassion and gentle spirit.
Sharon's greatest joy in life was being a mother to her three children—Hannah, Noah, and Avery. She delighted in supporting them, cheering them on, and sharing in the special moments of their lives. Outside of her role as a mom, Sharon loved shopping, listening to music, teddy bears, and all things pink. She will be remembered always for her warm heart and radiant smile, both of which live on in her children.
She is preceded in death by her grandparents, Bob and Dode Lee and William and Vera Talich, as well as her cousin Sarah Lee.
Sharon is survived by her children, Hannah, Noah, and Avery; her parents, Dennis and Barbara; her brothers, Brad (Dana), Cory, and Jim (Jennifer); and nine nieces and nephews.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Check back for more information.
