Sharon Renee (Passon) Radeke, 82 Becker, MN November 5, 1942 - June 26, 2024

Sharon Renee (Passon) Radeke, a beloved wife, mother, daughter, and sister, passed away peacefully of natural causes on June 26 surrounded by family and loved ones. 

Born November 5, 1942, in Staples, MN, Sharon spent her childhood as the fifth of six children in St. Peter, MN.

On April 8, 1961, Sharon wedded Glenn Radeke of Becker, and expanded their family over the years, welcoming four children, 10 grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren.

 Sharon was known for her faith in Christ (serving as both a Sunday-school teacher and a bible school superintendent during summers) and for her deep commitment to the Becker community (boosters club, marching band). Sharon dedicated nearly her entire career to customer service.

She worked at the Becker Subway from its opening in 1995, eventually buying the location in 1997, and retired with her husband Glenn in 2006. 

In addition to deep roots in Minnesota, Sharon and Glenn called Surprise, AZ home during the fall and winter months for nearly 20 years, and were cherished members of the Sun City community there.

 Sharon is survived by her husband Glenn Sr., children Glenn Jr. (Edye), Cindy (Ken) Wilson, Ed (Masayo), and Steve (Michelle); and is preceded in death by her parents Albert Sr. and Cleone (Dumpprope) Passon, and siblings Marvin, Robert, Albert Jr., Virginia (Baumgartner), and Janis (Decko). She is missed deeply by her family, friends, and the communities she was part of for over 80 years.

 Memorial Services will be 11:00 a.m. Tuesday, July 9, 2024 at Williams Dingmann Family Funeral Home in Becker. Rev. Joshua Reber will officiate and burial will be at the Becker Cemetery. Visitation will be one hour prior to the services.
