Funeral Services will be April 8, 2008, at the Whitman Community Church in Whitman, Nebraska. Sharon Lee Henderson was born December 30, 1934, at the Johnson Maternity Home in Hyannis. She was the eldest child of Floyd E. and Rosella S.(Grouns) Henderson. She grew up on the family ranch north of Whitman, helping with all the chores of ranching including being her dad's "horse wrangler".When she was 6 years old, her brother Larry joined the family. Sharon attended St. Agnes Academy in Alliance, graduating in 1952; she attended Chadron State and Wayne State Colleges. She married Edward B. "Ted" Jeary on September 13, 1955 in Lincoln, Nebraska. To this union, five children were born: Joyce in 1956, Jean in 1957, Joan in 1958, Jana in 1959, and Clark in 1961. They established a home north of Hyannis on a ranch purchased by Ted's father where they raised Angus cattle and Arabian horses. Ted and Sharon were divorced in 1972, and Sharon moved to Hyannis, establishing a home on a sandbur patch next to the football field, which she turned into a lush, green 4-1/2 acre lawn that required 8 hours a week to mow. She married Richard "Dick" Peters on September 3, 1974, in Bridgeport, Nebraska. Sharon and Dick built Dick's Repair Shop into a thriving business in Hyannis. On the weekends, they liked to fish and go to antique auctions. They also traveled to Hawaii three times and various other destinations in the U.S. While her kids were in school, she was always taking a carload of students to an away game, or tournament, a spelling bee, or a speech meet.

She helped with numerous community events, including Windmill Country Days, March of Dimes dance, and hosting Easter egg hunts on her lawn for many years.Sharon's passions were gardening , making salsa, collecting windmill art, and mowing lawns.
