Sharon was more than just a technical writer. She was a person who left her mark on everyone she worked with. She will be sorely missed.
- Svi Ben-Elya -

If tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane,
I would walk right up to heaven
And bring you home again.

When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure.
Forever in my heart, my frined! I miss you so much!
Daniela, Bulgaria

She was not only my boss but my friend too. A happy person and always laughing. We all miss you. Rest in peace!

Sharon, Z"L, was my immediate boss at BATM, and what a nice and friendly boss she was! The smile never left her face and that's what everyone at BATM remembers the most about her.

She was an excellent manager who gave me, and other team members, the freedom to do our jobs without having to breath down our necks at every turn. She trusted us enough to allow us to be creative, accurate and punctual with our tasks.

My sincerist condolences to her family and best wishes for the fast recovery of her youngest son.

May she rest in peace.

I would like to thank you all for your kind words about my sister Sharon Falk Sabag.
She really is a great person and we will all miss her dearly.

Sharon was my cousin. We loved her very much. I remeber her as a person who loved life and experiencing it with family. Whenever she came back to Chicago we all wanted to see her and spend a s much time with her as we could. I last saw her at a dinner my mother held for her and her family when they came to visit and take a trip to the Western United States. God Bless her and her family. She will always be with us in heart, mind and soul. Rest in Peace Sharon.
