Sharon was one of the most generous and supportive people I ever worked with, in addition to being one of the least egotistical. Her down-to-earth, accessible personality disguised an acute intelligence laced with surprising, unexpected insights that always helped and benefitted their recipients. She maintained a continuing interest in the ups and downs of my own career and was always there to help, even though there she stood to gain nothing by it. I will miss her very much and only regret all the conversations and talks we never had a chance to have..
