Sanford, Sharon Dawn Linda
It is with deep sadness and much love that we mourn the passing of Sharon Dawn Linda Sanford age 80 of Valley, Col. Co., on September 15, 2021, following a very recent diagnosis of cancer. She was the daughter of the late Charles and Charlotte (Fitzgerald) Carey. She is survived by her son, Peter Sanford (Yolanda), Truro; her daughters, Bronwyn Dodsworth (Aaron), Valley, Heidi Sanford (John), Kentville. She is also survived by her brother, Michael Carey (Teresa) and sister Debbie Boyd; grandchildren, Carey, Cole, Justice, Isaac, Sarah, Sam, Mike; great grandchildren, Emberly, Mia, Max; several nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by the love of her life and the wind beneath her wings, husband Douglas Keith Sanford; her sister Ruby Loomer, as well as many other very much, loved family members.

Sharon at a young age worked at Keyes Fiber in Hantsport where she met her husband. She later worked for many years at the Maple Leaf plant in Canard. Her family meant the world to her and she loved everyone with all her heart. She had many interests and things she liked to do including; watching nature, spending time by the ocean, caring for her plants and flowers, always looking for different seeds to grow, shopping at Frenchy’s, going on trips with family and friends, watching crows and collecting anything that had a crow or butterfly on it. She had many hidden talents that she sometimes shared with others through her songs, poems, quotes, pillows, paintings and many unique artistic creations. She worried about everyone and everything in a loving and caring way. She will be sadly missed by her family.

A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, September 25 at 2pm in Colchester Community Funeral Home, 512 Willow Street, Truro with Marty Clark-Ettinger, DLM officiating. Family flowers only.
