Sharlene Ruth Miers' Obituary
Sharlene R. Miers, 78, passed away on July 3, 2017 in Middleburg, FL. Sharlene was born and raised in Lansing, Michigan where she graduated from Eastern High School in 1956. Married to James Miers in 1963, Jim and Sharlene were blessed with 54 years of marriage. Sharlene had a long and varied career, in city government, the most notable being City Clerk in Plantation, FL in the 1990’s. Sharlene found joy in serving Christ, she spent her entire life giving, and serving her family, friends and community. She was an encourager to everyone she met. Sharlene always had room for one more at the dinner table, an extra bed, a needed hug, a listening ear and a smile on her face. She served with the Broward General Hospital NICU, Guardian Ad Litem, First Coast Women’s Services, and Clay County Food Bank to name a few. One of Sharlene’s greatest loves was her church, especially her service with the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League where she served in various capacities for over 40 years. She had many hobbies including reading, needlework, knitting and crocheting for loved ones.
Sharlene is preceded in death by her parents, Ruth (Rowe) Donahue and Charles Donahue. Sisters Nancy Jones and Kay Foster.
Survived by her Husband Jim Miers, Brother Dennis Donahue, Sons Steve Wilson (Sandy) and Brian Wilson (Cindy).
