Sharon Elaine Hoisington, 77, passed away at her home in Clifton, Colorado, on
September 13, 2022.
Sharon was born January 23, 1945, in Uravan, CO, to Lyle and Edith Gilbert.
The family moved to Rifle for a short time, and then to Fruita, where Sharon lived
the rest of her life.
Sharon attended Fruita area schools and graduated from Fruita High School
in 1963. Following graduation, she married Fred Hoisington in September of that
year. They had two sons, Freddie and Charlie.
Along with her roles of housewife and mother, Sharon cleaned residential
homes in the Fruita area. She was active in the Fruita Lions’ Club and in the
Fruita Christian Church, where she developed some life-long friendships. She
served as janitor of the church for several years. When her mother’s health
declined, Sharon became her live-in caregiver for several years until her mother
passed away in 2006.
Sharon was preceded in death by her husband and her parents. She is
survived by her sons Freddie and Charlie, three grandchildren—Crystal, Lloyd, and
Riley—and three great grand-children—Evie, Zander, and Grayson.
A memorial service and reception will be held at the Clifton Christian
Church, 3241 F 1/4 Rd, on Saturday, October 1, 11:00 am. Snyder Grand Valley
