Sharon was born on July 5, 1951, in Gloucester, MA to the late Augustus and Helen (Perry) Silva.
Sharon was a graduate of GHS class of '69. From there she went to fulfill her dream of becoming a nurse. She was a well-known nurse in the operating room, starting at Addison Gilbert Hospital welcoming any patient that needed her assistance with a smile and a warm welcome, making sure everyone was taken care of. Moving her way up the chain, she became nurse manager and was moved over to Beverly Hospital, where she became one of the best managers to work for. She would even be found tap dancing in the hallways of the hospital. Sharon was a lover of everything from the Boston Red Sox to the New England Patriots, watching any game she could. While enjoying her time with friends and family, her real pride and joy was her grandson Cody, who she adored every second she could get. While taking him to swimming classes, or out to breakfast at the Depot Diner, she and he would have several adventures together.
