On May 28, 1949, Sharon Kay Moore was born in Rochester to F.L. “Bud” and Mary I. Holcomb Moore. Growing up she shared her childhood with a brother Steve. She graduated from Rochester High School with the class of 1967.
For decades with a strong work ethic Sharon was dedicated to working for Lau Industries until her retirement. She was a member of the St. Joseph Catholic Church. Sharon played fast pitch softball and was an accomplished bowler. In the early days she was gifted with a meticulous effort to create intricate woodcarving figurines. She was a huge animal lover, always catering to her canines and felines.
Her favorite title was Aunt Sharon, also known as "Shar Bear," and she was always there for all of her nieces and nephews then the greats! With great pride she doted on them and was there to help them with anything they would request. Aunt Sharon was the leader of the pack for family celebrations and the holidays parties. She also loved watching Notre Dame women's basketball team and all other Notre Dame teams as well.
