Sharon Kocorowski, who radiated warmth and love to those she met, passed away on Tuesday, September 28, 2021.

"Bird" left this earth as a loving and devoted wife, mother to two kids (and many others who entered the household), Nana, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin and friend. God gave her one of the kindest hearts and souls, with friends often becoming family with her genuine embraces and welcoming demeanor no matter who walked through the door. She loved dancing and playing music in roaring fashion, whether at parties with people, or alone while cleaning -- a trait passed down to her children. She baked amazing chocolate chip cookies. She looked out for neighbors. Her laugh was unique and contagious. She simply was a presence that brought many together.

Sharon is survived by her husband of 41 years, Kevin Kocorowski; their children, Jacob (Laura) Kocorowski and Sarah (Kevin) Schroeder, and their grandchildren, Mason and Chase Schroeder, and Elijah, Logan and Samuel Kocorowski. She is also survived by her sister Rosanne Lalko, brothers Tim (Melissa) and Todd Borowski; brothers-in-law Robert and Todd (Katerina) Kocorowski; sisters-in-law Kayleen Brown and Deborah Kocorowski; various nieces and nephews, cousins, other family members, and countless friends who became kin throughout her years. You cannot forget her guinea pig, Carmel.

Sharon was preceded in death by her parents, William and Joan (nee Lisota) Borowski, parents-in-law Robert and Mariann (nee Kozminski) Kocorowski, brother Michael Borowski, and brother-in-law Brian Kocorowski.

Friends and family will be able to celebrate Sharon's life at a memorial service on Wednesday, October 6, at 6:00 p.m. at the Phillip Funeral Home Chapel (1420 W Paradise Dr West Bend, WI 53095). Visitation is at the funeral home from 4-6 p.m.

With loving respect for ourselves, our neighbors and those planning on visiting during the COVID-19 pandemic, attendees will need to wear masks.
