Sharon Sylvester

Sharon J. Sylvester, of Bennington Vermont passed away at 72 years-old on March 18, 2024 at Southern Vermont Medical Center.
Sharon was born on August 16th, 1951, in Pittsfield, MA to parents Jacqueline Devine and Theodore Sylvester.

Although born in Massachusetts, Sharon always proclaimed that Vermont was her true home. She was a caring, out-going free-spirit who had the ability to make personal connections with people from all backgrounds. She was passionate about gardening, art, and baking, always crafting personal gifts or baking treats for family and friends. Sharon had a love for the ocean and dipping her toes in the water on the beaches of Cape Cod. She was a proud mother, grandmother, and grand “pawrent” to her four children, three grandchildren, and many grand dogs.

Sharon was preceded by her brother James Sylvester and is survived by her sister Karen Fairs, brother Timothy Sylvester, children Dawn and James Stewart, Brian and Nicci Agaman, Gabriel and Alexis Agaman, Travis Agaman and Lauren Ashwell, and her grandchildren Matthew Stewart, Emily Stewart, and Kayla Lannon.

To honor Sharon’s final wish, a celebration of her life will be held on Saturday, May 11th from 1-3pm at Bloom Meadows 2422 Hancock Rd, Williamstown, MA 01267.
