Obituary For Sharon Lee Reynolds

Sharon L. Reynolds January 30, 1946 – July 15, 2016 Resident of Newark Last 3 Years 30 Year Resident of Fremont

Loving daughter, wife, mother, and grandmother, Sharon L. Reynolds passed away peacefully on July 15, 2016 at 12:55 a.m. with her husband of 50 years, Ray Reynolds III, and her two sons, Robert and Brian, by her side. Sharon is now resting with her mother and father, Leonard and Dorthy Gallipeau, and her two brothers, Tom and Richard. Sharon was the last surviving member of her immediate family. Including her husband and sons Sharon is survived by her three grandchildren: Robert Reynolds’ son, Christian (19 years old), and Brian Reynolds’ daughters, Destinee (13 years old), and Skyler (11 years old).

Sharon spent most of her life as a homemaker but loved children so much that in her upper forties she returned to college and studied early childhood development and quickly began working as a teacher’s assistant with pre-school and kindergarten children for about 6 years at Milpitas Christian School.

Sharon was a devote Episcopalian who loved country music, coastal drives, and going out to eat with her family. Sharon loved baking cookies during the holidays. She loved reading romance novels and had been a fan of the soap opera General Hospital since the 1960’s — hardly ever missing an episode. She stayed active at home with her cat, Patches.

The love of Sharon’s life were her children, grandchildren, and nieces. Knowing they were all happy and enjoying life kept Sharon vibrant even during her many health endeavors. If you knew Sharon, you knew a person whose heart was giving, whose spirit was uplifting, and who never gave up. There was nothing ordinary, about Sharon's ordinary life. May she rest in peace.
