Sharon was born on July 19, 1942, in St. Peter, Minnesota, to Gerhard and Ethel (Mueller)
Lieske. She spent most of her life in Henderson, where she graduated from Henderson High
School in 1960 before continuing her education at Mankato Beauty School.
On October 13, 1962, Sharon married Tom Trimbo. Together they welcomed four children,
Roxie, Mike, Deedra, and Janelle, who remained a central part of her life. Throughout her life,
Sharon held a variety of jobs and worked hard until health complications led her to retire earlier
than she had planned.
She found joy in baking and loved sharing her treats with family and friends. Many will fondly
remember her homemade bread and the Christmas goodies she prepared each year, which
became a cherished tradition for those lucky enough to receive them. Sharon was also very
skilled at refinishing furniture for herself and many members of the community.
Sharon is survived by her children, Roxie Vandorpe of Grand Rapids, MN, Mike Trimbo
(Special friend Vicki) of Helmville, MT, Deedra (Rick) Hoffman of Henderson, MN, and Janelle
(Gregg) Dorwart of Independence, MN; grandchildren, Emily (Dan) Wright, Josh and Jared
(Brianna) VanDorpe, Cal (Special friend Darby) Hoffman, Frank (Jordan) Hoffman, Beth
(Corey) Smithman, Bryan (Karlie) Trimbo, Bradley Trimbo, and Ashley Trimbo, Kalli Dorwart
(Special friend Lake), Karsen Dorwart (Special friend Ella); 13 great-grandchildren, with
number 14 arriving in July; siblings, Wanda Sonderby, Gary (Luann) Lieske; and sister-in-law,
Linda Lieske.
She is preceded in death by her parents Gerhard and Ethel Lieske, sisters Rosemarie Lieske,
Thelma Ceminsky and brother Eugene (Butch) Lieske.
