Sharon Sue (George) Buro, 80, of New Port Richey, Florida, peacefully went home to be with the Lord on Tuesday, June 18th, 2024.
Shari was born on February 29th, 1944, in Lawrence, Kansas. She was preceded in death by her parents Walter and Betty (Botts) George. Upon graduating from William Chrisman High School in Independence, MO Shari attended St Luke’s School of Nursing in Kansas City, MO. She had a 50-year career as a registered nurse working in Labor and Delivery for her entire career. New parents could not have been in better hands!!
Shari is survived by her spouse of 60 years Frank Buro of New Port Richey, FL; her two daughters Beth Maher of Oak Grove, MO, and Christi Skrelunas (Matt Kenna) of Holiday, FL; her three precious granddaughters Miranda Martino (Jose Rangel) of Greeley, CO, Jessica Skrelunas, and Jenna Skrelunas, both of Tampa, FL. She is also blessed with her sister Sheila George of Independence, MO; and her brother John George (Debi) North Kansas City, MO; as well as several nieces and nephews!
Shari was a beautiful soul who touched the lives of so many, especially in her family and her career as a nurse. She asked for so little, but she gave so much! A loving person tender and kind, what a beautiful memory she has left behind. Shari was always a shining example of love and strength. She will forever be in our thoughts, and forever in our hearts until we see her again.
A small, family viewing was planned for Thursday, June 20th. Her private burial took place on June 21st at the Florida National Cemetery, Bushnell, FL. We will have a glorious Celebration of Shari’s Life for family and friends at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, and to honor her love of animals, donations can be made in Shari’s name to:

I have so many memories of this beautiful woman. She has been so very kind to me all of my life. And since you and I were only four, Beth, that is basically all my life. I will forever be able to hear that laugh of hers and picture that big smile. She was always so full of life, love and some song lyrics and a funny story or two. My prayers go out to the family. May your heart be full for of the loving memories that your mom/grandmother has left you. Thank you for all you did for me mama Buro. Till we meet again….

Beth, I remember your mama always smiling.
When I was diagnosed with cancer 5 years ago she sent me a little devotional book. That was so thoughtful of her,especially considering I hadn’t seen her in many many years. She still took the time to Let me know that she cared about me. Every time I pick up my book I will think of her kindness. I love you Beth and I know your Mama is watching over you. There is nothing like the love of a mother for her children
Love, Tina

So beautifully written for such a beautiful person. Anyone who met her knew how fiercely she loved her family and would do anything for them. I am so very sorry for your families loss and my thoughts and prayers are with you all. I’m sure she’s up in heaven right now eating Tuna sandwiches and Rita’s Italian ice.
Love,
Morgan

Anyone that knew you, knew love! We shared such a special bond from the moment I was born. You were there for every single moment of my life. Thank you for raising the woman that raised me and for being such a present person in my world. I will continue to live a life that you would be proud of. Although I’m happy you’re at peace, my world is darker without you physically here with me. I love you more than words could ever express, Ge!
Love, your grandbaby Jess 💕

Anyone that knows me knows how important my grandma is in my life. I can’t imagine a world without her beautiful soul and kind heart. She is hands down the most selfless and caring person. The world would be a better place if everyone was like her.
I can’t wait to see you again someday, Ge. I will walk in your footsteps every day and I will reflect you in my day to day life. I will love and miss you forever. I love you so much!
Rest in peace, my beautiful Ge 🕊️🤍

Gosh, so many things I can say about Sheri. Sheri and I went thru nursing school together. She was one of my best friends. Someone mentioned her laugh and suddenly it was like she was right here next to me and I was hearing that laugh again. We helped each other get thru the ups and downs of school and laughter was a big part of that. Thru my friendship with Shari I met Frank and he met my boyfriend Doug. We all became good friends and the boys put up with us all thru school. Shari and I “paid them back” by marrying them. I was with Doug untill I lost him 12 years agoand Shari and Frank were together even longer. Such dear friends, time doesnt change that. Frank I want to extend condolences to you and your family for you loss. I know you all know how blessed you are to have had Shari in your life.
