Sharon's obituary

Sharon Ann Millar, 72, of Fort Wayne, peacefully went home to Jesus on August 10, 2022, after a short and courageous fight against breast cancer. She was born to the late John, Sr., and Virginia Kroemer on August 4, 1950, in Fort Wayne.

Sharon graduated from Central Catholic High School in 1968. She married the love of her life, William Millar Jr, in 1970, after he was drafted to deploy to Vietnam. Sharon worked at Miller Scales and Food Machines as an office manager for over 25 years before taking an early retirement to do what she truly loved, caring for her family.

Sharon loved to entertain family and friends with dinner parties. She also enjoyed reading, sewing, cooking, and baking pies. Sharon was a dedicated mother first and foremost. She treasured her family and embraced every moment with them. She especially loved her role as Gigi. She had a comforting, embracing, accepting personality, and always made it her goal to make people around her feel loved.

Sharon was preceded in death by brother John Kroemer and brother-in-law Alan Hyman.

Sharon is survived by her husband William Millar Jr; children Dave (Trina) Millar and Jenny (Matt) Lauer; grandchildren Taylor (Anthony) Jerrall, Alli (Allister) Fisher, Chris Lauer, Dalton (Nicole) Langston, Nathan Millar, Lexy Lauer, Bailey Langston, Riley Millar, and Phoenix Millar; great-grandchildren Zander and Leighton Fisher; brothers Ron (Sue) Kroemer and Jerry (Janet) Kroemer; sisters Janis Hyman, Linda (Chuck) Hawley, Mary Lynn (Scott) Hamrick and sister-in-law Rita Kroemer.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date, where we will all gather and remember the beautiful life that Sharon lived and all the amazing memories she left behind. In lieu of flowers donations to Cancer Services of Northeast Indiana or The Alzheimer’s Association.
