    Notes:

    Died:
    Sharon D. Sprague Feb 22, 1949 - March 31, 1998.

    Sharon Dianne Skrogstad was born Feb. 22, 1949, the daughter of Howard and Mabel (Flom) Skrogstad in Grafton ND. She was raised and educated in the Milton, ND area. She graduated form Milton High School in 1967. She attended the University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, graduating from there in 1971.

    Sharon married James Sprague, Jr., on May 22, 1971 in Grand Forks. They moved to Michigan City, IN and later to Bloomington, IN.
    She created the Peaceable Kingdom Toy Company, which made wooden and soft toys. She was on the founding committee of the Fourth Street Art Festival and a founding member of the By Hand Gallery, both in Bloomington, IN. In her later years she worked for the Monroe County Community Mental Health Center and the Bloomington Hospital as a drug and alcohol counselor.

    Sharon is survived by one son, Jeremy Sprague of Bloomington, her mother, Mabel Skrogstad, Grand Forks, ND, one brother Merlin (Jone) Skrogstad, Duncan, OK, two sisters Eunice (Marlyn) Duden, East Grand Forks, MN and Melva (Ellerd) Boe, West Fargo, ND.

    A memorial service was held at Milton Lutheran Church on April 21, 1998. Pastor Alan Arneson officiated. Pastor Arneson is married to Sharon's niece, Lisa. Those providing music were Pastor Arneson, Melva's kids, and spouses and a family friend, Diane Fossum. After the service, time was spent at the church visiting with family and friends. Then the family went to the graveyard where Sharon had previously been buried and then to the farm where Sharon grew up. We shared a wonderful day together as a family sharing our sadness and fond memories.
