With
profound sadness we said goodbye to Mary Sharon Scully on Friday,
January 5, 2018, just three days after her 73rd birthday. Words cannot
express the grief felt by Sharon’s family: Walter
Keicher, devoted husband of 20 years; cherished children Carmen Doyle
(daughters Rosemarie Topp & Evangeline Doyle) and Michael
Doyle ( sons Nicholas & Nathan Doyle) and devoted
daughter-in-law Viviana Doyle (son Alejandro Amaya); loving
sisters and brother Sheila (Scully) & Eric Kelly, Gary
& Shirley Scully, Patricia (Scully) & John Morton;
wonderful stepfather of 53 years Michael Sullivan; Walter’s
children Mark & Pia (Ida & Elis) Keicher, Andrea
& Jason (Dexter & Olivia) Szabo, Thomas & Lisa
(Erika, Alyssa & Carina) Zuhlsdorf. Sharon loved and admired
all her nieces, nephews and cousins; family was everything
to her. Sharon was pre-deceased by her sister Doreen McSheffery
(Harry), her mother Agnes (French) Sullivan, and her father Joseph
Scully; her first husband Ernie Doyle.
Described by her
grandchildren as "feisty & fun, provider of warm hugs,
delicious cinnamon buns, pb & syrup sandwiches and snuggly
scarves" Sharon will be best remembered for her courage,
intelligence, and generosity. Sharon moved to Ontario in 1979, but
Prince Edward Island will always be her home. She enjoyed
summers in PEI with Walt kayaking, cycling and working on their
cottage, and the rest of the year skiing, sewing and working on their
homes in Campbellford and Peterborough.
A Memorial
Service will be held in The St. James Catholic Church, Georgetown on
Friday, January 19, 2018 at 2 pm. Interment to follow in the
Parish Cemetery. Sharon’s life will be celebrated
this summer in PEI, details to be confirmed.
We thank our extended
families, especially the Fernandezes, Martells, Mulligans, and Topps
for their love and support. We are also grateful to the
Peterborough Regional Health Centre and will always remember the
exceptional care and compassion provided to Sharon and us, her loved
ones, in our last few weeks together. In lieu of flowers, donations to
the Palliative Care Unit at PRHC are
welcomed.
