Sharon was born to William and Catherine (Schacher) Hochstein on April 15, 1950, in Dimmitt, Texas. She was the oldest of 13 children. Sharon married Ralph Brockman on June 12, 1969 and shared 51 wonderful years of marriage together. Faith, family and community were important to her and she did all things with a servant’s heart. Sharon was known to many as Grams because she cared for so many other children and loved them as her own. There was always a snack bag filled with goodies at ballgames, pizza box cookies for big accomplishments, Amish bread for fundraisers, and monkey bread for bake sales and state trips. She shared her love of music by playing the piano, singing at church, helping with the Christmas pageant, and teaching music at vacation bible school. She dedicated her time to her community by coaching t-ball, keeping the clock at ballgames and holding various offices in many organizations. Grams knew no stranger and she always made you feel welcomed. She enjoyed looking for and finding bargains, especially on Black Friday.

Sharon is survived by her husband, Ralph Brockman; daughters, Missy (Mark) Kleman, Jennifer (Craig) Sperry, Kristin (Monty) Moore, Lesley Brockman, Kimberly (Tyson) Schulte; and son Mitchell (Lindsey) Brockman; along with 19 grandchildren; her parents; six sisters; and six brothers; many in-laws; numerous nieces and nephews; and countless babysitting kids.
