Sharon Jeanette Brown was born August 10, 1960 to Gaynell and L.C. Holman in Shelby County, Texas. She attended West Sabine school where she stood out as a basketball star and cheerleader. She made lifelong friends and precious memories that always gave her great joy.

In 1980, she married her longtime friend and soulmate, Earl Brown. They were blessed with one child, a daughter, Krystle Nykol Brown, and 40 years of unconditional love for one another.

Sharon was always a hard worker. In her younger years, she held positions at Temple Inland, the Dairy Queen, and Big Chief grocery. After that, she had a very successful career at Pineland State Bank, breaking down barriers and giving it her all for over 10 years. She was known for having the "fastest money counting hands in town" and a smile that could light up a room. She also served as a trustee for West Sabine ISD for three years, striving to make a positive impact in her community.

After she was forced to retire for health reasons, Sharon focused on loving her family and her passion for cooking and supporting various charities anonymously. All who knew her can attest to her fun-loving personality, stunning natural beauty, and unrivaled loyalty.

She loved her family and she loved God. Faith in Him kept her going when she thought she couldn't go any further.

She leaves behind to celebrate her memory: her loving husband and champion of 40 years, Earl Brown of Pineland, Texas; a loving and strong daughter, Krystle Nykol Brown of Tyler, Texas; a faithful mother, Gaynell Holman of Pineland, Texas; a wonderful brother, L.C. "Do-Dad" Holman Jr, of Pineland, Texas; and a host of nieces, nephews, and friends. She is preceded in death by her father, L.C. Holman Sr., December 3, 2015.
