Cynthia’s Obituary Cynthia “Kay” Sharp, age 77 of Stanwood, passed away Monday, July 01, 2019. She was born May 14, 1942 in Morley the daughter of James L. and Bessie Jean (Yoe) Weeks. Kay was a lifelong resident of Mecosta County, making her home near the Muskegon River for over 30 years. She graduated from Morley/Stanwood High School. Kay held several jobs throughout the county including; working many years at the Stanwood Buffalo Inn and for Dee Verburg wallpaper and painting. Kay served for many years, both in her former auxiliary and in the #2335 Auxiliary, as the Veterans and Family Support chair and worked to help local veterans and their families. She was also the Americanism chair, the Patriotic Instructor, and was very active in the VFW’s District 12 Auxiliary. Kay also helped Colin Kelly each year with shipping Jerky for the Troops to military personnel serving overseas. She was an active volunteer in the Hero Hugs program, where they made teddy bears that were given to the veterans who went on the Honor Flights. Kay’s laugh was unmistakable and her kindness was bottomless, both to her friends and to people she didn’t even know, but supporting and helping our veterans was always of utmost importance to her. Kay is survived by her son, Ron Sharp of Stanwood; her granddaughter, Megan Sharp of Big Rapids; her sister, Pauline (Mike) DeMar of Boon; a niece Laura Staffen and a nephew Paul and his wife Aubrie Staffen of Stanwood. She was preceded in death by her parents and a son, Gary E. Sharp in 2016. Cremation has taken place and burial will be at Aetna Township Cemetery. Memorial contributions in Kay’s name may be made to VFW Post #2335 Auxiliary in Mecosta. Share a memory or condolence with the family at www.daggettgilbertfuneralhome.com Read More
