Sharyn A. Pavone, 79, of Bellefonte, passed away on Friday, March 21, 2025, surrounded by her family. She was born on April 11, 1945, in Greensburg, Pa., to the late Daniel M. and Elizabeth (Loomis) Melville.
On Aug. 16, 1969, in Bellefonte, she married her best friend and beloved husband, Michael A. Pavone, who survives at home after sharing 55 years of marriage together.
Sharyn was a 1963 graduate of Hempfield High School and attended Westmoreland Hospital of Nursing, receiving her degree as a registered nurse in 1966. She was a dedicated nurse and worked throughout the Centre County area starting at Mount Nittany Hospital, Juniper Village at Brookline and for Centre Crest Nursing home, retiring in 2011 after over 40 years.
Sharyn loved decorating for each holiday, making sure every room matched and making sure her dishes accompanied as well! When she wasn't decorating, she enjoyed reading, creating items with ceramics and watching cheesy television shows. Sharyn and her husband loved spending time with her family and grandchildren. She was a member of St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church and Catholic Daughters of Americas in Bellefonte.
In addition to her husband, she is survived by two daughters, Jennifer Davison (Rob), Pittsburgh, and Kathryn Niemann (Joel), of Bellefonte, and three grandsons, Jacob, Joshua and Cameron Niemann. Also surviving is her sister, Barbara Bosio (Bill), of Greensburg.
She was preceded by her parents; her granddaughter, Julia Niemann; and sister, Susan Rich.
Friends will be received on Friday, March 28, 2025, from 9 a.m. until 10 a.m. at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, 134 E. Bishop Street, Bellefonte. Catholic mass will begin at 10 a.m. at the Church with Father Joshi Narisetti officiating. Burial will be private at the convenience of the family.
