I feel so incredibly lucky to have met and been mentored by Sharon at Senior Watch — her intelligence, strength, and unfailing compassion were an example to be emulated. Kindness always at the forefront along with her wit, with a smile and sparkle that could truly light up a room, I know she will be sorely missed. I send my heartfelt condolences to her family and also to her great friend and colleague, Jean. May her memory be a wonderful blessing.

My mother (Loretta) and I met Sharon through her great service to seniors with Senior Watch in Saint John. She was a great help and solace to us in a time of health and financial upheavals in our lives.
Condolences to her family and Jean M.
She was a lovely person and true professional doing great and important service work. I know her energy will live on through us and the thousands of people she helped and taught. Her example stands tall for us all.

Dear Taryn and Michael,
We are deeply saddened to learn of the death of your mother. She was a truly wonderful person and we are enriched to have had her in our lives. My mother and father both adored her as did we. My father in particular always thought that she was a wonderful fisherman and he often commented that Sharon was the one who caught the fish that ‘got away’! We send you our sympathy and our love and may Sharon rest in peace and rise in glory. We pray that memories of times past help sustain you.
With love,
Fawn, Ken and Emily White

Our thoughts and prayers are with her family and Jean in their loss of mother, grandmother and a dear friend.

Taryn and Michael, my sincere condolences on the death of your mother. Sharon was one of my nursing classmates and I,looked up to her ,both then and throughout life. She was always so steadfast through all of life's occurances and had a strong faith that kept her solid.
We maintained our friendship and I shall cherish the visit we had last fall when we reminisced about training days and some of antics we got up to.
She had a good sense of humor and we shared some great memories of fly fishing and her adventures on her scooter. She will be missed by so many but memories of her will remain.

One of the strongest memories is the smile on mom’s face when I would pick the first flower of spring. It’s fitting cause no other plant that I know of has the perseverance and ability to make people smile. Much like my mom.
