September 1, 1950 - January 15, 2015
It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of Sharon after a lengthy battle with cancer. Sharon was born in Duncan, BC. She was raised in Lake Cowichan and came to Campbell River in 1962. Sharon met Mike in 1965 and they were married on August 1, 1970. Together they raised two boys: Dwaine and Eric. Sharon adored her grandchildren Atley, Brody, and Rikkina, niece Nicole and nephew Chad and was very close to her cousins Judy and Linda. For 25 years, Sharon worked for PRT, and then started her own landscaping and painting business. Later, she and Mark Sullivan became partners and together they operated Sharon and Mark’s Enterprises. Sharon loved to work! She was an active businesswoman in the community and she was a long-time member of the BNI Discovery Chapter as well as the Campbell River Women’s Networking Group. It was there she met many friends and she was loved, admired and respected by so many.
I would like to thank all the doctors and nurses at the Victoria, Richmond and Campbell River hospitals. I would like to send a special thank you to Dr. Robert Ramsey for all of his help and all the homecare nurses Deb, Barb, and Tracy.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, February 14th at 11am at the Maritime Heritage Centre. Mike will be creating a memorial garden for Sharon at their home. If anyone wishes, feel free to bring a living plant to her service in her memory.
On angel's wings you will ride
To another resting place in time.
And if this is true, like I know you do
Then I’ll see you there and you’ll be mine.
I’ll love you forever.
