Sharron Lyle McIntyre
May 19th, 2018
It is with great sadness that the family of Sharron Lyle McIntyre announces her passing on May 19, 2018, in her 76th year, after a courageous battle with lung cancer. Sharron will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by her husband John; children: Lee (Michelle) and Boyd (Andrea); stepchildren: Kellie (Jim) and Troy (Marichielle); grandchildren: Taylor and Marleigh; step-grandchildren: Taylor, Kaylene, and Leia; sisters: Donna (Art) and Judy, brother: Jack (Sandi); and brother-inlaw: Dave (Marilyn). She was predeceased by her parents: John and Hazel Rekis.
Sharron grew up in Richmond, British Columbia, and thereafter, lived in Tsawwassen and Richmond. Lee and Boyd enjoyed the benefits of a stay-at-home Mother while growing up. In 2000, she married John and moved to Cloverdale. In her 40’s, Sharron reentered the workforce, eventually working for the Jim Pattison Group (specifically: Neon Products and The News Group). She started as an on-call receptionist and graduated to become the organization’s Executive Assistant. In all areas of her life, Sharron was recognized and respected as independent, hard-working, caring, strong-minded, generous, and unassuming – she brought a touch of class to the world. Sharron was a gourmet cook and baker. She loved working in her flower garden, going for walks at Crescent Beach and travelling with John, golfing with the girls, and spending time with her family and friends.
Thank you to the staff of the Langley Hospice Residence for making her last months comfortable. A Celebration of Life for Sharron will be held on Saturday, June 23 from 12:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. at Northview Golf and Country Club, 6857 168th Street, Surrey, BC.

Dear John and family, My deepest sympathy to you and yours on the passing of dear Sharron. I was so honoured to have her as a dear and close friend. I often told her I thought of her as the sister I never had. She was the epitome of a true friend and will be remembered for her kind and caring ways. She was a beauty inside and out and we “got” one another. She fought long and hard, but now is resting peacefully. With deepest sympathy, Hugs, Maureen
