LEWISTON — Sharon Day Durfee woke up in Heaven on Saturday, April 19, after a courageous fight with cancer. She will always be our hero.

Daughter of Arnold and Ethel Day, Sharon is survived by her brother, Leroy and Deborah Day; and sister, Linda Fitch and Steve Brown. She leaves her mark on this world through her children, Sherri and Donnie Davidson, Theresa and Wes Ridlon, Stacy and Gene Morrell, Spike and Buffy Ward, Paul and Dale Ward, Kelly Durfee and Angela and Mickey Mullaney; 15 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.

She had great love for her dogs, Notagain and Foxy. We are still unsure who rescued whom. After retiring from hairdressing, Sharon volunteered at Community Concepts. She loved her Friday Night Bingo girls, doing arts and crafts and dancing to her favorite songs, along with being with family and friends.

We will miss you deeply, daughter, sister, Mommie, Mother, Mumf, Mom, Ma, Momma Mia, Mimi, Sharon and friend. Love — The Hardwood Gang.

Great thanks to Dr. Boedeker and the amazing staff at the oncology clinic in Bridgton; they not only cared for our mother, but our entire family as well. Also, heartfelt thanks to the M1 staff at Central Maine Medical Center for their support.
