Sharon Luzetta McKnight, 72, passed away on Wednesday, November 27, 2019.

She was born on January 13, 1947 in Highland, to Marguerite Sickler and Paul Palmer. She is survived by husband Samuel McKnight, her daughters, Marguerite Wolf, Jennifer Perez, Samantha McKnight, her grandchildren, Alexander Wolf, Kaitlin Wolf, Jake Perez, Andrew Perez and her great granddaughter, Sarah Wolf. She was predeceased by her sister Barbara Yablonsky and brother Frank Palmer.

One of her favorite places in the world was Chincoteague Island, Virginia where the entire family vacationed for a week every year. The best times were spent talking on the porch watching the lighthouse over channel on warm nights. She loved all the little things about that place; the call of the seagulls, good ice cream and being with her family.

When not vacationing in Chincoteague, she was camping. She spent her last two summers vacationing in the Mohonk Mountains. This is where she was happiest, in the woods, in her camper, enjoying the company of a blazing campfire, a furry friend and loved ones. She is dearly missed by all those who knew and loved her.

Calling hours are Tuesday, December 3, from 6-8 p.m. at the Michael Torsone Memorial Funeral Home, Inc., 38 Main St. Highland. Burial will be private at the convenience of the family.
