Ervin Sharbono

Ervin Sharbono, 83, of Silesia, passed away in Billings, on July 26,2019.  He was born on July 9, 1936, in Sidney, Montana to parents Gilbert and Ruth (Mix) Sharbono.  He grew up on the family farm 27 miles west of Sidney.  He attended grades 1 through 8 at the rural Sharbono School.  He attended high school in Lambert, Montana. 

He joined the United States Army in 1954.  While stationed in Germany, he met the love of his life, Hannelore Kanngiesser.  They married on November 6, 1957.

His interests included spending time with his family and friends, hunting, fishing, watching rodeos, listening to, and collecting, country music, playing cards, and traveling.  His Christian faith was a very important part of his life, a fact that was reflected by the way he and Hannelore raised their children in the Laurel Assembly of God Church.

He was preceded in death by his parents.

Left to cherish his memory are his wife, Hannelore, and his 5 children:  Sieglinde (Dan), Doug (Valerie), Cindy, Dolores (Noel), and Roxanne.  He will also be greatly missed by his 9 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren, also his Sisters, Edna and Viola and Brother Virgil
