We Remember

WILKINSON, Sharon Lorraine
September 18, 1954 — February 18, 2025
With heavy hearts we announce the passing of Sharon Wilkinson, who left us on February 18, 2025. She was a beloved mother, grandmother, sister and friend.
Sharon was born in Nanaimo on September 18, 1954 to Raymond and Annie Wilkinson. She was a hard worker and had the gifts of deep compassion and quiet strength which allowed her to excel in her career as a Registered Nurse. The last years of her career she spent as a nurse manager where she was well known for her ‘no nonsense’ approach.
Though she had a tendency to be quiet and reserved, Sharon also had a sharp wit and wicked sense of humor. She loved to dance to anything by Marvin Gaye and you could count on her to never miss a Canucks game on TV. Some of her favorite memories were of her travels through Europe after nursing school with Julie. Her grandchildren were the joy of her life and she embraced her role of grandma with playful energy and unconditional love.
Sharon will be remembered by her children Madeleine (Anthony) and Duncan (Deana); grandchildren Luca, Rosie and Nico; brothers Arnie and Larry; as well as many nieces and nephews, friends and colleagues; and her lifelong best friends Julie and Bruce Gregory. She is now reunited in heaven with her parents Ray and Annie and her brother Murray, who predeceased her.
A prayer service and private celebration of life will be announced at a later date.

Sending my deepest sympathy to Maddy and family at this very sad time. Maddy I worked for a number of years with your mum as my manager partner we certainly worked together through some challenging, tough and stressful times. We always had each others backs, were there for each other and helped each other when it was needed. We always managed to bring some laughter into our work too.
