Sharon loved shopping and spoiling her granddaughter. She loved her dogs, her grand-kitties and tending her garden in the summertime. She also loved playing Farmville. She was a dedicated teacher and mother, pushing the forefront of technology education. Growing up in Lawrence, MA, her Italian heritage was a big part of her identity and she had recently been learning to cook her mother’s old country recipes. She always chose Markeys over Browns Lobster Pool and she loved the beach and visited often. She was also an avid viewer of Two and a Half Men (only the Charlie Sheen Seasons “Not that Ashton guy”) and rooted for the Red Sox no matter how bad they were that season. A New Englander through and through.
At the request of the family, all services will be private. In lieu of flowers, mom loved animals of all shapes and sizes. She also loved the Boston Red Sox. Donations in her name can be made to the MSPCA at Nevins Farm, 400 Broadway, Methuen, MA 01844 or to the Jimmy Fund at http://www.jimmyfund.org/ways-to-give/memorial-and-tribute-gifts/. The Kenneth H. Pollard Funeral Home, 233 Lawrence Street, Methuen, MA is honored to serve the Testa family.
