Sharon BORLE Obituary

Spokane - Sharon "Koko" Ann Borle was born December 23, 1959, in Spirit River, Alberta, and passed peacefully in her home in Spokane, Washington, on August 25, 2024. She moved to Spokane, Washington, when she was four years old, lived in Seattle for a while, but made her way back to Spokane for her teen years. During her 20's she spent most of her time in Alaska where she worked on crabbing boats and other various projects. She was even an associate producer on a Hollywood movie. Koko worked her whole life as though she was "pulling pots" like she did in Alaska. She worked hard to provide for her son. Koko's determination and spirit extended to her work in grooming, where her clients became friends. She is survived by her son, Alexander Shrack; and two grandsons, Sebastian and Fletcher Shrack; along with a community of friends who cherished her deeply. Koko's legacy of hard work and kindness will be remembered by all who knew her.

I am sorry to hear of KOKO's passing. She groomed our little dog the last few years and did an excellent job. I talked to her about a month ago and she updated me on her condition and it was definitely a gut punch. She had a wonderful heart and soul and she will be greatly missed by all whose lives she touched. Rodger Grass

I will always remember the love she had for my children. Her grandchildren got to experience the best parts of her and I am eternally grateful.
