Patricia Sharon Prier

May 20, 1945 - February 28, 2021

Sharon Prier passed away unexpectedly but peacefully in Kamloops, BC on February 28, 2021, aged 75 years. She is survived by her daughter Rhonda MacDonald (Wayne) of Merritt, BC, son Alden Prier (Terri)

of Blackfalds, AB, grandchildren Wyatt, Max, Garrett, Owen and Erin; sisters Joan Cornelssen, Gwen McAdam; brothers Glen McKinney, Dale McKinney and Keith McKinney, nieces and nephews as well as many friends and relatives.

Sharon was predeceased by her loving husband Ron Prier; parents Arnold and Jean McKinney, and brothers Lyle, Wade, Allan, Murray and Brian.

Sharon enjoyed cooking, baking and canning and was delighted to have her pop-up roadside stands become a resounding success. The vast majority of her customers quickly became friends and repeat customers, she loved to visit with anyone who would stop for her goodies and was known to be generous not only with her products, but with her time.

Our Mom and Oma leaving left a big hole in a lot of lives that will never be filled. Sharon’s family was probably the most important thing in her life. She cherished times that the whole family could get together and enjoy a fabulous meal at her house. Ron was the love of her life, and she never stopped missing him.

A celebration of life will be held late summer in Merritt.

In lieu of flowers please make donations to Royal Canadian Legion 096, Box 527, Merritt, BC, V1K 1B8.
