Sharon was born on April 30, 1979 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She had a rough start in life but was blessed with the heart of a warrior and the soul of a gypsy. She was a free spirit and a social butterfly that befriended everyone and made every outing an adventure. She met the love of her life, Bryan Hodges, 17 years ago and the couple married in 2021.

Sharon worked for Anderson Erickson Dairy as a Payroll Specialist. She enjoyed playing dress-up with her granddaughter Blair, playing the video game Worms, camping, swimming and traveling. Her family loved her sense of humor, her strength, her smile, her determination, and her reassurance that everything would be okay.

She will be greatly missed by her husband, Bryan Hodges; her children, Troy Brown, Allyson Nutty, Jaden Brown and Donavin Hodges; her granddaughter, Blair Nutty; her brother, Ron Woods; her sisters, Valerie Woods and Laura Hess; grandma, Sharon Maldonado; mother and father-in-law, Michelle and Larry Hodges; and sister-in-law, Krisha (Tracee) Halvorson.

Sharon was preceded in death by her mom, Veronica Zollars; and her grandpa, Pete Maldonado.
