Constance “Connie” Scharp

Constance “Connie” Scharp passed away peacefully on August 6, 2024. Born to Richard and Fanny Dobbs on February 23, 1940 in Three Lakes. She was dearly loved and will be missed.

Connie was a cherished member of the Dobbs family, sister to the late Marlene (Richard) Katalinick and Debbie (Bill) Spence. In 1959, she married her beloved Robert Scharp in a beautiful ceremony at St. Theresa’s church in Three Lakes, marking the beginning of a shared life filled with love and devotion.

Connie’s love extended to her five children: Rick (Teresa), Craig (Jessika), Tracy, Jim, and Derek (Raceen), and eight grandchildren Josh, Quinn, Alex, Ashley, Abi, Evan, Thomas, Cecelia and Bryce, who remember her as a nurturing soul, always ready with a comforting word or an engaging game of cards. Connie enjoyed classical music, fishing, golfing, and playing cards, especially bridge.

Predeceased by her parents and her sister Marlene, Connie’s memory will be cherished and kept alive by her husband Robert, her children, grandchildren, sister Debbie and a community that was better for her presence.

The family would like to thank Compassus Hospice for their compassion and care. Connie will be profoundly missed, but her spirit will continue to guide and inspire all who were blessed to know her.

Services to honor and celebrate Connie’s life will be held on August 12, 2024, at 11 a.m. with visitation starting at 10 a.m. at St. Peter Catholic Church, located at 5001 County Road G, Eagle River. Following the service, a reception will be held at the church.
