Sharon Ann Foy

With great sorrow the Foy and Pann families announce the passing of Sharon Ann Foy, (Wolfgram) on Saturday, April 13th, 2024.  She was a brave and loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend.

She is survived by her husband, Joseph Foy Jr, with whom she shared almost 50 years of marriage.  They had four children and thirteen grandchildren.  Erin Foy Pann (Tim Pann) with Lucy, Simon, Violet and Bettie.  Joseph Foy III (Kelly) with Henry and Aubrey.  James Foy (Sierra) with Julius, Scarlet, Bennett, Elliott, and Aurelius. Daniel Foy (Staci) with Liam and Harper.

Sister of Diane Krawczyk (Bob Sawinski), and brothers David Wolfgram (Mary) and Cris Wolfgram (Linda).  Sister-in-law to Mary Nelson, Therese and Dick Kimberly, Margaret and George Hofmann, Pat and Linda Foy, Mike Foy, Pete and Lezlee Foy, Tim Foy and Daniel Rios, Kate and Mike Brondino, Maureen and Viktor Hampel and Beth Foy and Mike Morse.

Beloved Aunt to 11 Wolfgram nieces and nephews: Brian Krawczyk (Michele), Kristy Krawczyk, Al and Christie Schultz, Jay and Priscilla Schultz, Heather Wolfgram, Heidi Wolfgram, and Rachelle and Craig Engelbrecht.  Great Aunt to 24 more children.

Cousin of: Walter Troppmann Families, Joseph Ziminski Families and Harry Wolfgram Families.

Further survived by Bryan and Daisy Bessa and family – your love turned into family.

Her cancer support friends: Janet Magin, Dawn Pociask, Karla Long, Laurie Landgraf, and the late Doris Sroka.  And wonderful, supportive, caring neighbors from both our New Berlin and Waukesha homes.

Preceded in death by her parents James Wolfgram and Gladys Wolfgram (nee Maas) and her in-laws Joseph Foy Sr and Florence Foy (nee Fischer).  Brother-in-laws Blane Krawczyk and Cliff Nelson and infant grandson Isaac Timothy Pann.

She wishes to express her heartfelt love to the Froedtert Cancer Center, her doctors, Dr. Sailaja Kamaraju and Dr. Stephen Malcom, and the nursing staff that spent hours caring for Sharon and chatting with her.  Their unwavering commitment, expertise and kindness provided comfort and support to our family.  May your compassion continue to touch the lives of others.

Sharon operated a licensed family daycare in New Berlin for over 30 years providing love and nurturing to dozens of families. She was an avid Milwaukee Brewers fan – loved gardening – reading and traveling especially to National Parks.  Past President of the Pius XI Parents Association.  Inaugural President of Foy In-Law Island.  Member of the Wolfgram breakfast club.  A proud Marine mom.

Most important was time spent with family.  She hosted Wolfgram Thanksgiving and Foy Christmas until her health declined.  She enjoyed her time each year in Minocqua, but the priority was always her time with her grandchildren wherever they were.

Visitation will take place on Sunday, April 21, 2024 at HERITAGE FUNERAL HOME at 4800 S 84th St from 4-7pm and on Monday, April 22 at ST. MARY CATHOLIC FAITH COMMUNITY at 9520 W Forest Home Ave from 10am until time of Mass at 11:30am.

Our family deeply appreciates your support during this difficult time. We will miss her dearly. We thank everyone for their prayers.

After a ten-year journey with breast cancer, she is now at peace and in the arms of the Lord and those that went before her.

In lieu of flowers, please consider taking a friend to lunch.

    Sharon will be missed. We had so many good times over the years. Gatherings at Diane’s home for Christmas eve. Last fall we helped her with cutting the flowers back for winter. She was such a joy to have around.
    This is not goodbye but till we meet again. Life for the whole family will change but she will be looking in on us from time to time.
    Never losses but blessings. We will move on in our lives, but she will never be forgotten.
    Iam sorry for the loss in both the Foy and Wolfgram family’s.
    Take each day as it comes and live it to the fullest…

    I knew Sharon in high school when I was 14.
    I used to walk to her house in the summer everyday.
    Sometimes we take the bus in front of Robert Hall Store and go to the museum downtown.
    We had fun times at her family home spending the night in a tent in the back yard
    Talking on the CB radio til 2 am
    Talked for hours on the phone when we had to babysit …
    Walked to Burger chef to grab a burger
    Cruise hwy 100 in her moms car….
    I borrowed her green velvet dress to go to a wedding…
    Sharon was the nicest friend you could ever have….
    I also dried a lot of dishes at sharons to get the chores done fast…
    So many memories when I was young ..
    All captured in my diary forever..
    Will miss you Sharon..if you see my brother give home a hug for me.
    Until we meet again…God bless you on your new journey in Heaven…love to fanily and friends and husband Joe.
