Sharon McLean

(UPDATED WITH ARRANGEMENTS) It is with a heavy heart we announce the passing of Sharon McLean, an integral longtime member of the Riverside family, wife of our general manager Paul McLean, and mother to Robby and Shannon. Sharon managed the front and back admission gates at the track and was a big part of the reason our fans and racers got in and out of the track so efficiently. She passed away Friday after a short but courageous battle with cancer. Sharon’s warm personality and sunny smile will be missed.

Our most sincere condolences to Paul, Robby, Shannon and the rest of Sharon’s family and her friends.
