Married first, Herb Alpert, 5 Aug 1956, in Los Angeles, CA (div. 1971). Married second, Frank Alesia in 1983. Two children by first marriage.
Sharon Alesia, who co-owned such stakes winners as Ashleyluvsugar, Champagne Room, Dance With Fate, and Weemissfrankie in the last decade, died June 15 in Carlsbad, Calif., after an illness, according to her business manager, Howard Grossman.
Alesia was 83.
Alesia and her late husband, Frank, owned horses since the mid-1980s, always with trainer Peter Eurton. Sharon Alesia, who often owned horses in small partnerships, maintained the stable after Frank Alesia's death in 2011.
The Alesias began their involvement in racing in 1984 when Sharon bought her husband a horse as an anniversary present. Frank Alesia was a stand-up comedian and actor who later directed episodes of the children's program "Captain Kangaroo."
"Sharon loved racing for the social elements, picking horses' names, and watching Pete Eurton win," Grossman said.
Services were recently held for immediate family, Grossman said.
