Sharon Irene Perryman (Gilman), 80, passed away at Bellin Hospital on August 19, 2024 with family members by her side. She was born on March 8, 1944 in Libertyville, IL, daughter of Russell and Arlene Gilman (McDearmid). On June 29, 1963, Sharon was united in marriage to Lawrence Perryman and were happily married for 50 years.

For over 30 years, Sharon worked for the Howard Suamico School District as a housekeeper. She made many great friendships over the years. Sharon loved spending time at the cottage in Eagle River, WI. She also enjoyed fishing, spending time around the campfire (always wanted a S'more!), vacationing with friends and family, and watching the grandkids enjoy the lake.

She also loved crocheting, sewing, gardening, cheering for the Packers, watching the grandkids play hockey and softball, crafting, golfing, going to the movies, traveling, playing cards with her dear friends (day trips with Donna and Jerry/bird watching), breakfast/lunch with friends and spending any time with her kids and grandkids. Family time and friendships were very important to her.

Sharon is survived by her children, Kimberly Paulson (Phil) and Bryan Perryman (Lori); grandchildren, Kelsey Fisher (Bill), Kyle Paulson, Samantha Melberg (Dustin), and Ashley Johnson; sister-in-laws, Marilou Gilman, Nancy Risley, Dorothy Knesley, Audrey Tahtinen, and Lois Roney (Ray); brother-in-laws, Harry Perryman and Bill Perryman; nieces and nephews, Beth Jacobson (Bruce), John Gilman, Randy Tahtinen (Pam), Lynn Roney-Lee, Diane Wilker (Shawn), and Bill Knesley.  She is further survived by many more extended nieces and nephews.

She is preceded in death by her husband, Lawrence Perryman; siblings, Charles Gilman and his first wife, Kathy; brother/sister-in-laws, Kurt Risley, Chuck Knesley, Jean Perryman, Gordy Tahtinen, and Kim Perryman; and nephew, Robert Tahtinen.

She is looking forward to seeing her beloved dog Taffy.
