Sharon Lee Dever, 77, passed away September 19, 2025. She was born in Akron to the late David and Marion (Carney) Bartlett and enjoyed crossword puzzles and crafts. She was devoted to her family and will be deeply missed.

She is survived by her son, William; granddaughter, Thea; great grandson, Timothy; her sisters, Bernice Zemelka and Ruth Dakes; and so many other relatives and friends. Special thanks to the special care of the staff and management at Sanctuary of Wadsworth over the past year, that actually got to know and love Sharon in such a short amount of time.
