My sincere condolences go out to your family. It is truly a testament to Sharon’s character to see the amount of people that have been reaching out to share loving memories, some funny stories, or beautiful pictures. She touched so many with her positivity, kindness, and love for both people and animals alike. She will be truly missed and the memories with her will be cherished forever.

Condolence from Susanna Jarvis on September 11th, 2015 6:41 pm

Sharon walked this world with the kind of lightness of spirit and kindness of heart that inspires others to live their lives more bravely and fully, with compassion and laughter and caring. And that was before this last long, hard year in which she showed all of us her true strength and courage. She lives still in the hearts and memories of all of us who were blessed to know her.

Over the past year, it has been easy to see that Sharon’s amazing character had its foundations in her wonderful family. You all have my utmost respect for the remarkable, unfailing support and care you provided for her. Words cannot adequately express the extent of the heartbreak I feel on your behalf. Parents should never have to lose a child, no matter the child’s age. She was too young. It’s not fair. Let yourselves grieve however you need to; no one can be strong all the time. Then, slowly, with the passage of time, healing and comfort will come and memories will bring more laughter than tears. My thoughts are with you all.

Rest in peace, beautiful Sharon! I will give Grayson love and treats for you every time I see your special fella!

Condolence from Mary-Rose and Roly on September 11th, 2015 6:45 pm

Our deepest sympathies to Lynne, Bill and your family. Know that you all are in our thoughts and prayers.

Condolence from Janice Tinker ( Loney ) on September 11th, 2015 7:51 pm

May the love and comfort that surrounds your family with thoughts of Sharon be the strength that is needed to get through the coming days

Condolence from St. Catherine of Alexandria Catholic Church, Bond Head on September 11th, 2015 9:00 pm

In Sharon, we came to know and respect a remarkable young woman and her family. She gave freely of her loving and generous nature to all those fortunate enough to have known her. We are grateful that we were the recipients of her kindness and thoughtfulness on many occasions. As with all those many privileged individuals who she knew, she made us feel special. For us, that is the gift for which we will always be grateful. We share our profound grief with all of you.

Condolence from Eloisa Santos on September 16th, 2015 10:22 am

My condolences for your loss. I had the pleasure of working with Sharon in various destinations. She was always kind and generous and had this wonderful ability to smile and laugh and make everyone around her feel the same way. Most of all, Sharon loved her family and her animals and it was evident in the way she glowed when she often talked about them. Sharon left us too soon and we miss her dearly. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. Rest in peace Sharon.

Condolence from Jean-René Scheffer on October 23rd, 2015 1:34 pm

Words are not enough to express the sadness I have felt ever since our Sharon left us. I can only imagine what this enormous loss represents for her family. She is and will be in my heart forever. Her laughter, her ever positive take on life, her team spirit, her compassion and last but not least her unique brand of humour will be sorely missed on every program she has ever worked on. My thoughts and prayers are with her parents whom I had the privilege of meeting shortly before Sharon’s passing. I feel honoured to have shared these precious moments with you and Sharon. Our dear girl is watching over all of us now. Much love JR XXX

Condolence from Keith Barker on December 8th, 2015 10:36 pm

My sincere condolences. I worked with Sharon catering and she was always the most caring and attentive, sweet and loveable person to work with. And I don’t say that lightly. She really was. That smile and her laugh were infectious, but her work ethic was just as striking. She taught me a lot about generosity and kindness. I only just heard about her passing. I will not forget her. She was a bright star in the sky and she will be missed.
