Sharon Leigh Curler, age 72 of Indianapolis, passed away following an extended illness on Wednesday, July 19, 2023 at her home. She was born September 1, 1950 in South Milwaukee, Wisconsin the daughter of Leo and Mary (Nowaczynski) Pritzlaff. Sharon was a 1968 graduate of Cudahy High School. She married the love of her life, Grant Curler on August 1, 1970. Sharon enjoyed reading her Bible, doing crossword puzzles and doing some local traveling. Along the side of her husband, they both liked to visit each county seat in Indiana, while they took pictures of all of the courthouses. They truly enjoyed the old architecture of those buildings.
Sharon loved to speak of her travels while in Europe, but most of all she loved Jesus. Sharon and Grant were Anglophiles, (a person who is fond of or greatly admires England or Britain.) loving anything British, especially watching British comedies. Her favorite show to watch with her husband together was, "Last of the Summer Wine". More than anything, Sharon loved to spend time with her family.
