NORTH WEBSTER – Sharon E. McLaughlin Bollhorst “Sherry,” of North Webster, passed away peacefully surrounded by her family at Parkview Warsaw on May 8, 2023,  at the age of 82.

She was born on May 28, 1940, in Muncie, to Harold McLaughlin and Eileen Basicker Plummer.

Sherry lived a fulfilling life, working as the chief of police secretary for Griffith Police Department for a period of 22 years before retiring. Her kind nature was evident in the way she interacted with her colleagues, friends and family. She had an easy-going personality that made anyone around her feel comfortable.

In addition to her warm personality, Sherry was an avid reader and loved sitting on the porch overlooking Webster Lake while observing the wildlife. One of her fondest memories is when she cruised the Caribbean with her husband, Lee. Her greatest accomplishment was being a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.

Sherry was a loving wife to Lee Bollhorst for 63 years and mother to Kevin Bollhorst (Melissa) and Debbie Bollhorst-Dallas (Bob). She was also a proud grandmother to Ryan Zimmerman and Leah Diekow (Zimmerman), and great-grandmother to Landon Diekow, Mallory Diekow and Audrey Diekow, who is due on May 31.

Titus Funeral Home of North Webster is entrusted with Sherry's care. A visitation will be held for friends and family to pay their respects from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday, May 12 at Titus Funeral Home-North Webster, 8056 E. CR 500N, North Webster. The memorial service to celebrate her life will begin at 6 p.m.

To make a donation in honor of Sherry, memorial gifts are appreciated to the American Cancer Society.
