Obituary of Sharon A. Miele November 6, 2024

On October 31st, 2024, at the young age of 60 after a short but courageous battle with cancer.

She was predeceased by her father Carl Miele and mother Joyce Chalker. Survived by her loving husband and best friend, John Gulisano; children Nicholas, Andrea (Sam), Carla, Lisa (Rob), and Lori (Mark); grandchildren Antonio, Ella, Ava, and JJ; sisters Gail (Rick) and Ginger; nieces Jennifer and Krista; and her dear friend Mary.

Sharon was a dedicated employee of Wegmans for over 13 years where she made many friends and the best subs in town.

Sharon was known as “Mom” to many. She welcomed everyone with open arms, good food, and a listening ear. She was always quick to put others before herself and take in anyone who needed a place to go—a special thank you to the one who stuck around the longest, Luis (MiKayla).

Of the many things that brought Sharon joy, sunflowers, ladybugs, listening to her 90s music, her morning coffee, and a cold beer after work were her favorites. She loved nothing more than being with her family and her cats, Mr. Milo, Munchie, Wink, and Stella.

We would like to thank Dr. Kamath & her wonderful team at Interlakes Oncology as well as the amazing radiation team at Wilmot Cancer Institute in Greece for their compassion and dedication throughout this difficult chapter in her life. And a final thank you to the hospice team at Highland Hospital 6 East where she found a new friend in her final days, Maureen.

Sharon will be greatly missed, but never forgotten by all who knew and loved her.

Her Funeral Mass will be celebrated on November 8th, at 10:30AM at Our Mother of Sorrows Church (5000 Mt Read Blvd, Rochester, NY 14612) followed by a celebration of her life at Thomas X. Grasso Lodge (Greece Canal Park, Rochester, NY 14626).

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Sharon’s memory to Toys for Tots, The Center for Youth Rochester, or the Verona Street Animal Society.
