Sharon Tuthill Obituary
It is with immense sorrow that we announce the passing of Sharon Tuthill who fought a brave three year battle with cancer. Sharon was a beloved wife to Kris, mother to Alison and Jessica, daughter to Concetta Linehan and the late Daniel Linehan, sister to Danielle and Karen, as well as a cherished aunt, niece, cousin and friend to many.
Sharon touched the lives of many people throughout her life. Always smiling, Sharon made the world a brighter place. Her warm and caring nature, along with her compassion for children with special needs allowed for her to excel as a pediatric speech therapist.
Sharon enjoyed watching her talented daughters perform. Alison and Jessica flourish on both musical and athletic stages. Alison plays the violin and field hockey and Jessica the viola and ballet. Sharon found beauty in nature, spending time tending to flowers around her pool. She also loved to connect with family and friends, always a listening ear, she genuinely cared for the happiness of others.
In this difficult time, we invite friends and family to come together and celebrate the beautiful spirit of Sharon Tuthill. She had a light within her that brought joy and laughter to all who were blessed enough to have known her. She will be deeply missed and fondly remembered.
Donations may be made to Good Shepherd Hospice, 200 Belle Terre Rd., Port Jefferson, NY 11777 and/or
