Morris, Sharon – age 82, a long time resident of East Chezzetcook, passed peacefully February 26, 2026, in Victoria General Hospital with family at her side. She was a daughter of the late Edwin Crawford and late Ethel Stoddard.
Sharon is survived by her husband of 59 years, Graham; children, Maureen Webb (Donnie), Bonita Carpenter (Bill), Glenn Morris; grandchildren, Rachel Carpenter, Brandon Carpenter, Karessa Webb and great-grandchildren, Kent, Vivian, Gerry, Max, Emmy; sisters, Linda Russell (Steven) and Diane Isenor (Earl). She was predeceased by siblings, Scott (in infancy), Blois, Neil, Blair, Alda.
Mom's hobbies included cards, scrolling Facebook and camping with the 'Good Sam' group. Her more serious hobby was Bingo where she documented on a calendar all her winnings. Nannies knitted creations for her grand/great-grandkids were crafted following Christmas for the next 'Bundles of Winter Warmth' gifts and will be passed on for many generations. Her passion for weekly baking allowed her to offer visitors a variety of treats. Bottled preserves and serving Hamburg Soup, apple dumplings, Queen Elizabeth cake and date squares, have all become traditional items for our family gatherings.
Mom supplied desserts and her potato salad to several celebrations at the Chezzetcook and District Lions Club. For years while in the 'CB (citizens band) Club' she was 'Minnie Mouse' along side 'Cookie Monster'. Gathering documents and information on the Scott/Crawford ancestry was a continuing and passionate project for many years.
Her direct, quirky humour was experienced with many including 'the man handshake' that she was never alert to at first then, gave back, to put those 'players' their place, then would chuckle. Popular sayings included 'A**hole', 'thing a ma bob', 'Go away with you', and during camping trips when someone was just slightly out of site using nature's facilities 'I see your winky'.
She went through a fad for several years mixing the delicious drink called 'Singapore Sling' which measurements were always done as a pinch and a pour, but were always still as delicious even when alcohol was no longer added.
Our family is deeply grateful for the care and compassion from staff at Twin Oaks Memorial Hospital, Dartmouth General Hospital, and the Victoria General Hospital and was also recognized and expressed by Mom during her final week.
As a dedicated supporter, we ask in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Chezzetcook and District Lions Club, 42 Mill Village Rd, Shubenacadie, NS B0N 2H0 on her behalf.
Cremation has taken place. There will be no service as her request.
