In Memory Of

Sharlene La Rance, age 80 of Helena

May 9, 1943 – March 14, 2024

Sharlene M. La Rance, born May 9, 1943, passed away with loved ones at her side the morning of March 14, 2024.  Sharlene grew up on her family’s ranch in Arlee, MT.  She felt blessed to have spent her career with the USDA Forest Service.  Those who knew her and worked with her loved her outgoing personality and her excitement for life.  Sharlene spent her retirement years in Helena, MT enjoying many hobbies while doting on her pets.  She will be missed dearly by those who love her.  At her request, close friends and family will honor her in a Celebration of Life.  In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to an animal rescue of your choice in Sharlene’s memory.

“Life has to end, love doesn’t.”

    Sharlene and I worked together for many years in the Realty department on the Helena NF. She was both a friend and a mentor. I’ll always remember her with a smile on her face, and laughter in her voice. She was one of the truly good ones, and we’ll miss her.
