Sharon Oreskovich

Sharon Rae Oreskovich of Danville departed this life and began her new journey on October 26, 2013. She was the centerpiece of her loving and devoted family along with Tom, her lifelong partner and husband of 57 years. Sharon dedicated her life to her children Tom, Steve, Mary (Adams), Ben, and Bill; including their spouses Kim, Laurie, Wade, Aly, and Angie. Her pride and joy were her grandchildren Melinda, Katie, Emily, Doug, Melissa, Drew, Bryentt, Abby, Nick, Mason, and Carson; and great granddaughter, Emma. Sharon was born on December 22, 1937 in Paris, IL to Benjamin and Margaret (Graham) Kelsheimer. She is survived by her mother, brother Mike (Kathy) and sister Susie. She was preceded in death by her father and her brother Jim. She is also survived by a large extended family including her special sisters- in-law Kathy Kelsheimer, Judie Kelsheimer, and Mary Holycross as well as many cousins, nieces, and nephews. Sharon led a very fulfilling life as a wife, mother, and grandmother who loved exploring her familys genealogy. She was an accomplished creator of crafts, a maker of beautiful doll houses, and an expert at turning her house into a warm and inviting home. In lieu of flowers the family asks that donations be directed to St. Pauls Catholic Church or Second Church of Christ.
