Sheryl Lynn Lawson was the 5th child born to Paul J. and Elaine S.

If you ever had the chance to meet Sheryl, you would never forget her.  She had the ability to strike up a conversation with anyone, no matter where they were.  She had a great love for little children and dogs.  She also enjoyed fishing and going for rides on her motorcycle and was an excellent shopping partner!

Sheryl died on Thursday, June 17, 2021 at her home following a lengthy battle with Lung Cancer.  She was 61 years old.

She is survived by her mother, Elaine Grotjohn of Morris; brothers: Joe (Julie) Grotjohn of Hawley and Ron Grotjohn of Sioux Falls, SD; sister, Teresa Drewes of Park Rapids and many nieces, nephews, and other extended family.  Sheryl is preceded in death by her son, Mitchell; her father, Paul; sister, Karen, brother Jim; and a nephew Jordan Grotjohn.
