Obituary: Sharon Goldsmith, age 65

Sharon Goldsmith, age 65, formerly of Milford entered into eternal rest after a courageous battle on Wednesday, March 13, 2013 at Hewitt HCC in Shelton.

Born in Bridgeport on May 27, 1947, she was the daughter of the late Russell and Anna Ruth Harrington Bevans. Sharon was a receptionist for Gaylord Rehabilitation and currently was with Total Care in New Haven.

She was an avid bowler with the Sunday Nite Mixed League, enjoyed listening to country music, a dedicated advocate of rescue dogs, solving Sudoku puzzles and making latchhook rugs, but nothing meant more to Sharon than spending time with her cherished granddaughter, Zoe, the light of her life. Loving, kind and generous, Mema will be sadly missed. 

In addition to her beloved Zoe, she is survived by her children, Carrie Walter and her husband Gregg of Stratford, Kevin Mayer of Shelton, Brent Bevans and Jeff Clark of New Haven. She was predeceased by her brother, Russell Bevans. 

Friends and family may call on Sunday March 17 from 2 to 5:30 p.m. at Cody-White Funeral Home with a Prayer Service to follow at 5:30 p.m. Burial will be private. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to S.T.A.R.S (Stratford Animal Rescue Society), PO Box 1371, Stratford, CT 06614.
