After graduating high school, she attended Occidental College where she graduated in 1955 with a bachelor’s and credential in Physical Education. Upon graduation from Occidental, she immediately received a job at Shafter High School as a physical education teacher. Although she only taught for three years, she was always very proud of her time there, and the friendships that she formed. Sharron was a wonderful teacher that left a huge impact on the students that she taught. On August 2, 1958 she married Joe Esnoz of Lost Hills, this would be the beginning of a very long and loving marriage of 61 years. A few years later they would have two sons, Phillip, and Michael. They were her pride and joy. Sharron was a devoted wife and mother that always put her family first. She was an extremely intelligent, hardworking woman that never missed a beat. She kept a wonderful home while supporting her husband in the sheep business and working side by side with him. She loved to be outside and going out to sheep camp and spending time with her animals, especially her faithful dogs. Sharron was also a very sweet and loving Grandma that loved spending time with her grandchildren and spoiling them every chance she could. They loved and adored her and learned a lot of great life lessons from her. After battling Alzheimer’s for eight years, Sharron passed away very peacefully on May 29, 2020 in her home surrounded by her family. Sharron is gone, but never forgotten. She was loved by everyone that knew her and will be dearly missed. We thank God for such an amazing wife, mother, and Grandma.
