In loving memory Sharon Louise Reese
September 11, 1948 – March 11, 3025
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our loved one, Sharon Louise Reese.
Sherry was the daughter of Tommie Reese and Verla Stinson.
She was born and raised in Oceanside, was a Campfire Girl, and made many lifelong friends before graduating from Oceanside High in 1966.
She attended Woodbury College in L.A. before returning to Oceanside to become a legal secretary.
Sherry worked in law offices while raising 2 children, mostly on her own.
She switched careers in her 40’s to become a principal’s secretary for the Oceanside School District at Pacifica, Ivey Ranch, and Nichols Elementary schools.
She loved it – this was her calling.
She made many friends over the 20+ years she worked at these elementary schools, and people who worked with her respected her because “she ran a tight ship.”
Sherry retired in 2014 and became very social and active, getting together frequently with her high school friends and all those she made friends with over the years.
She also had 4 granddaughters who were a big part of her life and brought her so much joy.
Sherry Reese is survived by her son, Daren Reese, daughter-in-law Mara Reese, daughter Amy Reese, son-in-law Nick Dean, and her granddaughters Kyla, Alexa, Bella, and Anika.
Sherry will be laid to rest at the San Luis Rey Mission Cemetery in Oceanside on Monday, April 7th at 1:30pm.
Celebration of Life will be held following at El Camino Country Club. All are welcome.
