Aw Bonnie, a beautiful tribute to your sister ❤️
Please accept my deepest condolences. Although I hadn’t seen Sharon in a long time, there are reminders of her in her work scattered around that put a smile on my face. Rest in peace, Sharon
Dear Bonnie, This was a lovely obituary. Sharon’s passing will leave an empty place for so many but all the wonderful memories, her multitalented and ubiquitous arts and her generous soul will always keep her alive for us. We are so sorry for your loss. We will all miss her.
You remain in our thoughts and hearts, C.A. and Greg
Sharon was a shining light in the community. My deepest condolences Bonnie.
Our hearts are broken. Sharon you were taken much too soon. We love you. May you rest in peace. Aunt Sydelle & Uncle Marty!!!
We’re so sorry to learn of Sharon’s death. She was a lovely person and a good neighbor, and we will miss her. May her memory be a blessing to you all.
I am so saddened by the passing of Sharon. She was such an encouragement to me and my art. Ever since we first met volunteering at the Odeum in East Greenwich. Her talent was remarkable. She was instrumental in the printing of the “Poetry and Arts” booklettes at Wickford Art, which are now located in the poetry museum in NYC. The world has lost a very dedicated talented artist. My condolences to Bonnie who was always involved with promoting the arts by Sharon’s side.
Bonnie and family, we are so sorry for your loss. Sharon was a wonderful person and will be very much missed. We will always appreciate your family’s support for Defenders of Animals, Inc.
Bonnie so sorry for your loss. I haven’t seen Sharon in a long time, but was always interested in talking to you about what she was up to. We will keep her in our hearts. RIP, Sharon.
I volunteered alongside Sharon for many years at the Warwick Center for the Arts: she was insightful, passionate and committed to the mission. This morning I gazed upon one of her works of art and am grateful to have this memory of Sharon.
Bonnie, I am so sorry to hear of Sharon’s passing, she will always be remembered fondly.
You are in my thoughts and prayers
Sincerely, Trish Hurley
The more I’ve seen of Sharon’s work, the more I appreciate her wide range of talent and her willingness to share her knowledge with me and her many followers.
She was the first child I ever babysat for when I would visit Rhode Island and stay with my cousins, Rita and Irv. When I was a baby Rita and Myra would babysit for me/then when I was older and visiting Rita and Irving, it was my turn to be the sitter and I loved it.
