Her second love were her many friends, neighbors, her cattle, horses and many pets that she nurtured to the end. Sharon held active positions in her community as the President of the California Cattle Women's Association, 1983-1984, 4-H Horse Leader and Native Daughters of the Golden West‹Chico Chapter. During her life she loved spending time at her 7B Ranch, as well as cooking, painting, and horse back riding.
