My heart goes out to all of Sharon's family and friends. We met at the US Attorney's Office in 1990, we started off as co-workers and it didn't take long before we were very good friends. She took me under her wing and helped me learn how to be an assistant in our office. The longer we worked together the more she taught me, not just about my job, but about life. She was a person I would call a true friend. She was one of the sweetest and strongest women I have ever known. I will miss her tremendously, but I know she will always be in my heart.
Sharon was our first support staff supervisor at the US Attorneys Office and later a paralegal at that office and at the US Marshals Service headquarters. She was known for her knowledge of court practices, her kind mentoring, and 'growing' new employees. Most importantly, everyone who worked with her knew Sharon was a good person and a friend.
The world needs more like her. Larry Gregg (former AUSA)
As an Assistant United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, I worked with Sharon in our Alexandria office for many years. She made it a better place. She always had a smile on her face and a kind word to say.
