Frederick J. Sharp, 63 of Rockland, passed away on June 2, 2025. Born in Boston on March 19, 1962, he was the son of the late John and Pauline (Keller) Sharp. Frederick proudly served our country in the United States Air Force. Later, he became a recovery counselor, leaving a positive impact on many peoples lives. Helping people turn their lives around and finding sobriety brought both his clients and himself much happiness.
Frederick was an avid bird lover. He enjoyed watching them, feeding them, and sitting on his deck listening to their songs. He also enjoyed taking walks on the beach. Above all, Frederick was a dedicated husband and father who always ensured his family was well taken care of. He had a close relationship with his daughter, Grace, with whom he shared many inside jokes on their walks or trips to get coffee.
Frederick was the devoted husband of Lisa J. (Morehouse) Sharp and beloved father of Grace Sharp, both of Rockland. Brother of John Sharp, Kelly Sharp, Pamela Fleming and the late Cheryl Cellamare. He leaves his nieces, Kyle Romano and Alyson Jaeger, as well as his nephews, Brandon Jaeger, Joshua Jaeger, and John Paul Cellamare, along with many great-nieces and great-nephews. Frederick also leaves many dear clients, both past and present.
A memorial service will be held at the Sullivan Funeral Homes, 45 East Water St, Rockland, on Saturday, June 28th at 12pm, followed by a memorial visitation from 1-3pm.

Fred helped me so much throughout my recovery. Before I came to Brooke, I was scared, hopeless, and my life was falling apart. Almost 2 years later I am married, with my own home, and my first child is on the way. This would categorically not have happened without the impact Fred made on my life.

I am so grateful to have been with Brooke, and to have met Fred when I did. His approach to recovery was full of humour, stories, and tough love. He made everyone feel welcome and as someone with quite a bit of anxiety about starting the process, this was key to my success.

Although passed on, Fred will continue to help me for the rest of my life - our conversations and his teachings will be my lighthouse to maintain my sobriety as I continue to grow. Not many people put as much good back into the world as Fred did - I hope to help someone half as much as Fred helped me before my time is up too. My condolences to his friends and family - please know that his memory will live on in the hearts and minds of many, and that although gone he will certainly never be forgotten.

You were a great inspiration for me and helped me find hope and a laugh when things were really not great for me. Fred, you've helped me get my life back on track and inspire me to do better. You will be missed!

Fred was the most wonderful and kind man. Like so many, he helped me personally in my recovery and will be remembered throughout my life. He was grateful in sharing his knowledge and passing it to all those who listened. Thank God, I listened. I will love and cherish all the time I got to experience with you and learn from you. God bless you and your daughter, Grace, and your wife Lisa.

I am grateful for the time I got to spend with you. What a powerful positive message you left for all of us. I say let's carry the message of recovery like Fred would want us to. I know dear friend said to me. That he could not fill your shoes. But I say let's at least try. You are so loved Fred. As long as you are remembered, you are not gone.
