Hi all, I just received new from a fellow classmate that Sharon passed away over a year ago. My name is Gale Travitz and Sharon and I were classmates. I remember her as a jolly, friendly girl. Please accept my belated condolences on your loss.
My heart goes out to the family, Sharon was such a blessing to everyone especially devoted to her family and daughter, Marissa. I worked with Sharon years ago and has been a friend ever since. So sorry for her family!
I remember Sharon from M&P Department working with her on several projects.
She was so happy when she adopted her baby girl who cried for so many hours her first night home.
My heart goes out to Marissa & family.

Marissa and family, my heart is heavy for your loss.
Your mom was a wonderful woman.
My heart goes out to you, Marissa. Your Mom was such a wonderful person. You went to St. Stephen’s School with my Son, because of her. When I was trying to figure out what to do about the prospect of half-day Kindergarten, she told me that she had you enrolled there. I remember fondly the times that the four of us would go out for lunch together and I know you kids enjoyed getting out in the day. She and I often talked about our kids, now young adults, and what was going on in your lives, I know how much she loved you. I worked with her in some capacity for over 22 years. She was a great co-worker and friend to many.
I’m very sorry to hear of Sharon’s passing. We worked together for 32 years. She was a friendly, welcoming soul and she will be missed.
When I was very new to the company, I had the pleasure of traveling to our NC office with her. She introduced me to my first Krispy Kreme donut! After learning I had never had one she insisted we stop. She said I would not regret it and she was right! That memory always brings a smile to my face.
She was very proud of her daughter and spoke about her often.
May it bring her family comfort to know that Sharon was loved and will be missed by many.
In Sympathy,
