Eleanore M. Addison, 77, of Hermitage, formerly a longtime resident of Sharon, passed away early Monday morning, January 25, 2021, in Sharon Regional Medical Center.

Mrs. Addison was born September 25, 1943, in Sharon, a daughter of the late John G. and Anna (Uhrin) Kocis. She was a 1961 graduate of Farrell High School.

Eleanore retired from Reyers Shoe Store, Sharon, where she worked as a sales clerk in the children's department. Years earlier, she worked in the cafeteria of Sharon Jr./Sr. High School, and loved cooking for the students.

Eleanore was a member of the Church of Notre Dame, Hermitage; and was previously a longtime member of St. Joseph Church, Sharon.

An exceptional baker, she had a lifelong passion for preparing baked goods for all of her friends and loved one's weddings, birthdays, and family events. Eleanore also had a talent for crocheting, and often made beautiful scarves and afghans to give to others.

Most of all, she loved spending time with her family, especially while camping with her husband and children.

Her beloved husband of 56 years, Benjamin L. Addison, Sr., whom she married September 19, 1964, survives at home in Hermitage.
