trips over the last years to visit uncle Jimmy and Pat these were some of her fondest memories

My sincere sympathies to Sharyns family. Although I haven,t seen Sharyn in many years I remember her well as a child living in Port Dalhousie. Her Dad was my first cousin on the Welland family.

Sharyn was a person that once you meet you never forgot her, a very special person. I met her because of my kitty-cat Smokey, Sharyn Loved her, So she was always Smokey’s friend. So after Smokey died I said Sharyn now you have to be my friend “maybe” she said, oh well I guess so. We had one of many good chuckles, after the tears. We had many good memories together, just driving along singing to the top of our lungs to our favourite song , not concerned if we got the words right or not. That was the way it was.
Condolences to all her Family. Love & Prayers. Mikki.
PENNE ALLEN

To Sharyn’s Family, my deepest sympathy to you all. I pray for your peace. I worked with Sharyn at the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations many years ago. She was a riot – we laughed hard, often and a lot. I last saw her a few years ago and she was still good old Sharyn. May she find eternal peace. RIP Sharyn.
