Born on August 4, 1953 in Saint John, NB, she was a daughter of Margaret "Peggy" (Morrow) Gamble and the late Arthur "Art" Gamble.

She taught music with the local school board and has impacted many students' lives as a private piano and voice teacher for over 30 years. Sharon spent many years of dedication playing piano and organ in the church and spent the last 10+ years as choir director and pianist at St. Martins Baptist Church. Sharon is survived by her loving husband Francis Floyd of 33 years; children: Jason (Tammy) Garnett of St. Martins, NB, Sheena Weston of St. Martins, NB, Jennifer (David) Floyd-Hartt of Saint John, NB, Sarah Garnett of St. Martins, NB, and Jared (Mindy) Floyd of Saint John, NB; grandchildren: Josh, Jarrett, Drew, Michael, Layla and Myla; mother Peggy Gamble; mother-in-law Irma Floyd; brother Stanley (Brenda) of St. Martins, NB; sister Kathy (Les) Clarke of BC; as well as several aunts, uncles, in-laws, nieces, nephews, cousins and her special K-9 friend Mylie.
