Sharon Kay Fellows, 71, of Lexington, Nebraska passed away on Wednesday, May 8, 2024, at the Lexington Regional Health Center.
Sharon was born on January 12, 1953, in Germany, to Dwayne and Evelyn (Jensen) Brown. Sharon lived in various places throughout her childhood while her dad was stationed in the Army. She received her GED while living in Lincoln.
Sharon made her home in Lexington in 1993, to live with the love of her life, Gary Ballheim. She held many careers including working for Karre City Bakery, Service Master and working as a custodian for the Middle School until her retirement. She enjoyed going to work every day and visiting with the students.
Sharon was a doting grandmother and always made a priority to care for and give extra love to all her grandchildren. She spent as much quality time with her grandkids as she could, working on projects with them and never missing a school activity that they were a part of. During her down time, Sharon enjoyed keeping up with her beautiful garden. She was also quite the tv buff. She could spend hours watching her favorite westerns, Star Trek, and Survivor.
Those left to cherish her memory is her love, Gary Ballheim of Lexington; her children, Shamane (Eric) Bryson of Elwood, Mikka (Jason) Fowler of Clyde, Texas, Matthew Ballheim of Hastings, and Melissa Carvalho of Austin, Texas; sister, Phyllis Swore of Oregon, eleven grandchildren and twelve great grandchildren.
Besides her parents, she was preceded in death by her granddaughter, Savanna, son, Micheal and her sister, Joan Brown; and brothers, Dwayne Brown and Mike Brown.
