Condolence from gail forrest on October 13th, 2015 10:45 pm

Cassidy and family- so shocked to see this even though I knew she was ill. I first met Sharon when we were both young and were neighbors. I always thought she was not only so pretty but caring and sweet. Throughout the yrs, we crossed paths occasionally and it was always so good to catch up with her. You were always the hilite of her life, Cass and never failed to talk about you. Thanks to Facebook, we reconnected again and always enjoyed seeing her there. I will certainly miss her but will never forget her. It was my privilege to have known her. May you have comfort in knowing how much she was thought of and loved, Cass, Johnny and family.

Condolence from Phyllis Carter on October 13th, 2015 10:46 pm

Dub and I are sorry to hear the passing of Sharon. We got to know your family when Cassidy and Jennifer played softball and Johnny coached them.
In recent years we would play a fast catchup when we would run into each other at the Beauty Salon. Sharon always had a smile on her face and it lit up when she spoke about her daughter and grandson.
Sending our prayers to all of you

Condolence from Dee Jones on October 14th, 2015 10:47 am

Dear sweet Cassidy,
For as long as I can remember Sharon was a part of the Kocian’s lives. Growing up on 12th street, spending the night at each others homes, Mom and Dad treating her as one of their own daughters, having her Uncle Bud take us to school on rainy days, sharing our crushes, playing tennis at Sul Ross, sharing holiday get together’s, all of these things we keep in our memory bank called family. When Sharon had you we added another memory and another family member, our sweet new niece, Cassidy. From your messages , we knew how you and Johnny provided loving, devoted care to Sharon and how difficult this last month has been on all of you. Your mama was a strong, vibrant, person who is finally free from the terrible confines of her disease. We mourn her and yet are so thankful that she is free. With much love, Aunt Dee

Condolence from Debbie Hyndman on October 14th, 2015 11:04 am

Condolence from Pat Hudson Johnson on October 14th, 2015 3:53 pm

Johnny, Cassidy & Family: I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Sharon and I shared many happy times growing up and I will miss her. You are in my prayers.

Condolence from Carliss Hyde on October 14th, 2015 3:59 pm

Johnny, Cassidy and family, I am so sorry for your loss, but grateful that Sharon is free from her suffering. I knew Sharon for many years at TSTC, and have been on the scary end of a scolding from her about wrongful budget work many times! 🙂 She never failed to correct my errors, to suggest a better way, and to make time for me when I had a question. I watched her walk through ALS with courage and humor, and was so grateful for her presence on Facebook until even that was taken away. Your family has been in my prayers during her illness, and I will continue to remember you in the months to come as you adjust to her absence.

Blessings,

Carliss Hyde

Condolence from Shereca Russell on October 14th, 2015 10:11 pm

Cassidy, I send my deepest sympathy to you and your whole family, in the passing of your mother. Recalling how great a student and young lady you were at CJH, I feel that I knew your mother well, through you! It is always too, too soon to lose one’s mother. May God grant you His constant peace and grace at this very trying time in your life.
Love, in Christ,
Cyndi Hurst Snokhous

Condolence from Shirley Helleson Batson on October 15th, 2015 9:51 am

What a terrific lady Sharon was. I knew her from West Jr. and Waco High but most recently from Facebook. What a strong, courageous battle she fought surrounded by the love of her family. I know your hearts are hurting but I sincerely hope your memories, the love of friends and family, and the knowledge that Sharon is with her Savior will comfort you.

Condolence from Nancy Taylor on October 15th, 2015 10:40 am

Dear Johnny, Cassidy and the rest of the family:
I am so, so sorry for your loss. I knew Sharon for 49 years. West Junior High and Waco High – those were the days! The years I shared with her here at TSTC were interesting to say the least. I can’t tell you the times she kept me out of trouble on purchasing issues. I have missed her since she retired and every day since. Cassidy honey, your mom was a very special person!
May God bless you all, with His love and mercy during this very difficult time.
Nancy

Condolence from Kay McMurtray on October 15th, 2015 11:19 am

My deepest sympathy to the family. Sharon took care of the program I worked for at TSTC for many years. I loved her smile, laugh and talking horses with her. She has been blessed with her presence in Heaven with our wonderful Lord and Savior with no more ALS. Let her many, beautiful memories give the family strength in the days to come. Sharon was such sweet friend and will be missed!

Condolence from Diane Kunkel McCleary on October 15th, 2015 3:34 pm

My deepest sympathy to Johnny and family and may God comfort you all. I loved Sharon when we were kids and I know we would have been great friends with common interests if distance wasn’t between us. Now I will look forward to reconnecting with her in that great pasture in the heavens.

Condolence from Linda Girard Henry on October 16th, 2015 1:01 am

Cassidy and family, I have known Sharon for many years WHS she was younger than me but I saw her a lot at the Kocian family’s house.
I always thought she was such a pretty girl the thing I remember most of all about her is that she was kind and always had a smile on her face. I really enjoyed the video of pictures felt like I got to be with her for awhile.
I am so glad we got to reconnect on FB.
Prayers for all of you I know your hearts are hurting. Take good care of each other.
Linda (Suzanne’s aunt)
