Sharon Yvonne Boismier

Sharon Yvonne McNabb was born March 31st, 1937, to Dick and Mildred McNabb in Canton, OK. She graduated from Woodward High School and attended the University of Oklahoma. She married Jim Ruble in June of 1959 and together they raised their two children Spence and Shelby in Woodward, OK. Moving to Oklahoma City in 1981 from Woodward, she became a realtor and professional model. Known affectionately as Honey to her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Sharon lived authentically, was a woman of indomitable spirit, impeccably bold artistic taste, and immense love. Sharon died August 8th, 2024, in the same manner that she lived; with bravery, style, and surrounded by the love of family. Fittingly – she penned the following:

“Born in Mom’s bed – 17 miles in the country – about halfway between Canton and Seiling. I weighed 10 1/2 lbs – poor mom…

I was a very shy little girl – 1st grade in Eureka, California, 2nd grade in Seiling, 3rd grade in Shattuck, 4th grade in Woodward. Somewhere along the way about 7th grade (I became a cheerleader) I blossomed. However, there are still times I become shy – oh well”

Preceded in death by husband Tom Boismier, parents Dick and Mildred McNabb, brother Dennis McNabb, and brother-in-law Wayne Ruttman.

Survived by son Spence Ruble and wife Jamie; daughter Shelby Smith and husband Sonny, grandchildren Burris Smith and wife Kristen, Brendan Smith and wife Sierra, Jake Ruble and Astria, Rachel Beck, Hannah Cowan and husband Jake, 5 great grandchildren, stepdaughters Linda Howard and Paula John, sister June Ruttman, sister-in-law, Macie Houston and friend Brian Upp, plus numerous family and friends.

Funeral service will be held at 1 pm on Tuesday, August 13th, in the St. Mary’s Chapel of All Souls’ Episcopal Church.
