Sherie's obituary
Sherie was born September 3, 1953 in Sioux Lookout, Ontario. She was raised on a farm in New York, moved to Alabama, and as a teenager lived in Nevada where she graduated from Clark High School. She attended LSU for a few semesters before marrying Bob Emerson in 1973. They first lived in Utah, then moved to Metairie, Louisiana and began their family with the birth of their daughter, Julie Ann in 1976, followed by the birth of their son Michael Robert in 1978. Divorce, work opportunities, and family brought her to Brigham City, Utah, where she eventually was hired as a quality assurance inspector at Thiokol. She worked there for eighteen years while being a single mother to her two children. We remember her as a loving, fun, and hard-working mom who enjoyed taking us on family outings and provided a steady home.
Sherie remarried later in life and had a second chance at motherhood. She was instrumental in raising her husband’s young daughter, Ashley Taylor for ten years. After her divorce, she moved to Washington State to live with her daughter’s young and growing family for a year before returning to Utah to live with her son and his family. Her last years living in Eagle Mountain were some of her best. She had a very loving and cherished relationship being in the care of her daughter-in-law Shamie, her son, and grandchildren. It was especially remarkable, that she was given the opportunity to reconnect with her first love, Bob. We are so grateful they could find each other again. They spent her last few years, and especially her last few months together. Bob was instrumental in her care and comfort in her final days.
Sherie enjoyed bowling, volleyball, coaching her son’s soccer team, and family adventures in her younger days. In her final years, she found so much happiness in spending time with people. She spent a lot of time at the Senior Center and thankfully was watched over and loved by many she encountered there. She loved taking walks with Bob, and she also loved walking Hanna and Toshi, the family dogs. She found so much joy in traveling and always looked forward to visiting her daughter and her daughter’s family in San Diego, as well as her sister Brenda in Oregon.
Sherie was preceded in death by her parents, Warren Littlefield (2009) and Vera Pauline Mason (2014), and sister, Patricia Lu Littlefield (1955).
Sherie is survived by her children, Julie Lisowski (Matthew) and Michael Emerson (Shamie); step-daughter Ashley DeGroff; grandchildren, Tristan (Shelby), Cassady (Aaron), Joshua, Isaac, Catherine, Matthew, Anthony, Jessica and Nicholas; great-grandchildren, Athena and Pheobe; sisters, Brenda Bjornberg (Dale) and Teresa “T.C.” Charlton; brothers, David Littlefield (Lori), and Matthew Eubanks as well as numerous nieces, nephews and friends.
