Gordon Sharpe Obituary (1948 - 2026)
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Gordon Sharpe at age 78, of O’Leary. Beloved husband of the late Margaret "Peggy" Sharpe (Nee Gray). Born on April 7, 1948 in Alberton, son of the late Irwin & Agatha (Bulger) Sharpe.
Loving father to Karen Milligan, Cascumpec. Special Grampy to Ashton (Janelle) Sharpe, Jacob and Peyton Milligan. Dear great grampy to Gabe, Reis, Maddex and Benji.
Gordon is also survived by his sisters and brothers Roma (Earl) O’Meara, ON; Allan (Patricia) Sharpe, West Point; Tony (Angela) Sharp, West Point; Nancy (James) Arsenault, Summerside; Oswald (Chris) Sharpe, Whitby, ON; Roger (Claudette) Sharpe, O’Leary; Beverley (Bernard) Jeffery, Coleman; Leila (Danny) Lynch, Fortune Cove; Lillian (Dale) Lynch, Enfield, NS, Paul Sharpe, Alaska, sisters and brothers in law Audrey (Jim) MacFarlane, Summerside, Raeford Rogers, Glengarry and Betty (Donald) Robinson, Coleman.
Gordon was a devoted husband, father, cherished grandfather, and treasured friend.
He was a man who gave freely of himself and all that he had. Generous to a fault, he was always willing to lend a helping hand to a friend, neighbour, or anyone who needed him.
Family was at the very heart of his life. He was proud of his parents and siblings and cherished the bonds they shared.
But perhaps nowhere was his heart more full than when he was surrounded by his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. They brought him an extraordinary joy and pride that was impossible to hide.
He will be remembered for his kind heart, his willingness to help, his many talents, his strong work ethic, and the quiet generosity that touched so many lives. The memories he created in the simplest of moments will live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know and love him.
Gordon was predeceased by his parents Irwin & Agatha (Bulger) Sharpe, wife Peggy Sharpe (September 26, 2015), daughter Kelly Lee and sister Dale McCue.
Resting at Ferguson Funeral Home and Chapel, O’Leary with visiting hours on Thursday from 4 - 7 p.m. Funeral service will be held on Friday at 11:00 a.m. in the chapel. Interment to follow in Union Baptist Cemetery. Rev. Ross Morrison of Alberton Baptist is officiating.
