Sharon Lynn Dake passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, April 21, 2020 at Mary Immaculate Hospital. Sharon was a resident of Newport News for the past 45 years. She was born in Michigan and raised in Keyser, WV. Sharon was a RN for over 40 years at CHKD in Norfolk working in the ER. She was always willing to help anyone and everyone in need and made a career out of it- her heart was pure. She loved the simple things in life like spending time with her children and grandkids, getting pedicures and sunbathing on her deck. Going out to eat was always a favorite, although she ate very little; she would always leave the restaurant with leftovers. When she wasn’t with her grandkids, you could find her relaxing at home watching TV or reading books.
Nothing was more important to Sharon than her family. She treasured her children and grandkids and embraced every moment with them. Sharon was tiny but mighty! She is survived by her devoted daughters, Shannon and Jessie Dake; her five loving grandkids, Matthew Dake, Nevaeh Brown, Kamilah Brown, Amina Jahic, Ayven Jahic; her mother, Betty Dake; her siblings, Karen Dake, Tony Dake, Dean Dake and Lolly Dake and her nieces and nephews, Jeremy Dake, Ray Stockwell and Taylor Dake as well as other extended family.
The family would like to thank Sharon’s CHKD family for all their love and support through this trying time.
A Memorial Service will take place at a later date once the COVID-19 mandate for social gatherings has ended. Arrangements by Weymouth Funeral Home.
