Sharon Caldwell was born May 8th, 1942, to Ray and Eleanor (Wendling) Kilian, and was raised in the Hoven and Pierre area. After graduation from Riggs High School in Pierre South Dakota, she married the true love of her life. Together they lived twenty six miles out of Fort Pierre, where for almost 62 years she was a loving rancher’s wife.
Sharon met the love of her life, Clinton Caldwell, at Coast to Coast. They married in February of 1963 and had three children Connie Dammann, Thad Caldwell and Tammie Peterson.
She enjoyed working on the Ranch, attending every sporting event and concert of her children and after that her grandchildren. She had many fond memories of watching her husband play baseball and kept score at many of his games. She also had many fond memories of all of her grandchildren and great grandchildren coming out and visiting her. She was always up for hugs and kisses and could often find her rocking the great grandchildren to sleep.
