You may not know me, but I am Sharon Mattiaccio’s daughter. I will never forgot your mom. She was such an amazing person, always soooo thoughtful and a wonderful friend to my mom. She was always sending cards for my parents birthday’s, all of my life changing events as I grew up. I am proud to say I was able to bring your mom sunflowers on her last day as a nurse at Crouse, as I was a PT there! I’ll never forget how grateful she was or surprised to see me from her night shift to my days! Thinking of you all at this time of loss.
