Sheila Kennedy Obituary

Sheila A. Kennedy

Westwood - It is with heavy hearts and immense sorrow that the family of Sheila A. Kennedy announce her passing on March 27th 2021 at age 86. A beloved mother and cherished grandmother and great-grandmother, Sheila grew up in Sunnyside Queens, New York and was a long time resident of Dumont, New Jersey where she raised her two children, Kathleen and Lloyd, with her beloved husband, Lloyd Sr. Loving, friendly, and considerate with a big heart and a zest for life, Sheila was a devoted friend and kind person who was known for taking care of all the neighborhood children in addition to her own. In her later years, Sheila loved to knit and crochet when she wasn't spoiling her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Words cannot express how much her warmth, kindness and vibrancy will be missed by all.

Sheila was predeceased by her cherished husband, Lloyd J. Kennedy and dear son, Lloyd W. Kennedy. She is survived by her daughter, Kathleen Krutki, her grandchildren, Brandon, Dylan and Cameron Kennedy, Siobhan Fleshman, and Kristopher and Lyndsay Krutki, her great-grandchildren Collins Fleshman and Adalyn Krutki, her brother, Michael O'Rourke, her sister, Marguerite Hagl, and her daughter in-law, Christina Kennedy.
