Obituary of Sharon Ruth Pritchard
Pritchard: Sharon Ruth (née Smith) –
A resident of Chatham, Sharon Ruth Pritchard passed away at the Chatham-Kent Health Alliance – Chatham Campus at the age of 66.
Born in Chatham and raised in Morpeth, ON, Sharon was the daughter of Elgin and Margaret (Peg) (née Winters) Smith of Morpeth.
Sharon was the wife of the late Gary Poissant (1997).
She was an amazing Mother to Katherine (Kattie) Holmes and spouse Salim Islam and step-Mother to Craig Poissant and wife Michelle.
A wonderful Grandmother to Aila, Esmée, Troy and Pearce.
She is survived by sisters, Treena ( William) Harvey of Chatham, Susan ( Paul) Galbrath of Ridgetown; her brother Mark ( Nancy) Smith of Windsor, and brother-in-law Jim ( Edna, 2023) Brown of Ridgetown, along with several nieces and nephews.
Sharon worked and built her career at the South West Regional Centre. In her later years, she turned her attention to her grandchildren which she adored; they were her pride and joy. She was a friendly ear to anyone who need her honest and wise advice. Sharon was giving and generous in her lifetime, often putting the needs of her family and friends above her own. “Kind” is the best description of Sharon and she will be deeply missed. Her strength and resilience through her many trials will always continue to be and inspiration to her family and all those friends that knew her. Sharon will be deeply missed by her “Girls” Amy, Pam, Calli, Mel and Michelle. Card night was always Sharon’s favourite night of the week.
Family will receive friends at McKinlay Funeral Homes in Ridgetown on Thursday February 29th from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. and at an evening visitation from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. All are welcome.
