We Remember
TOWN, Sharon
January 1, 1953 — April 9, 2026
It is with deep sorrow and much love that we mourn the passing of Sharon Town in the early morning of April 9, 2026, in Kelowna, BC, at the age of 73. She was predeceased by her husband, Thomas Patterson, and her parents, Doreen and Gordon Parkes.
Sharon is survived by her son, Jason Patterson, and daughter-In-law, Melanie Salas-Patterson; grandchildren, Selena and Shawn; and siblings, Donna Humbarger, Janice Buhr, Debbie Peachey and Corky Parkes. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews: Crystal Dendy, Brandon & Amanda Buhr, Graham & Derek Peachey, and Tanner, Bianca & Juliana Parkes.
Born in Winnipeg on New Year’s Day, Sharon spent much of her early life in North Vancouver before relocating to Courtenay, and then moving to Kelowna a few years ago to be closer to her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren.
A private person, Sharon found joy in simple pleasures – playing cards, attending plays, and, in her later years, enjoying her morning coffee at Tim Hortons and outings to the casino. She was a kind and thoughtful woman who will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all who knew her.
A celebration of Sharon’s life will be held at a later date; please contact Jason Patterson for details.
