RIP Sharon A. Sabbatino (1951-2024)

Last night we received the sad news that my mother-in-law, Sharon A. Sabbatino had taken her final train ride.

I met Sharon at the North Conway Station, where she worked in the gift shop and I in marketing. Years earlier, Sharon had shared her love for photography with Kris. And because of this shared passion, I had the good fortune to meet Kris at a Mass-Bay ‘Steam in the Snow’ event at the Conway Scenic Railroad.

Over the last few weeks, Kris and I had several opportunities to spend time with Sharon, including a visit on Cape Cod earlier this month.

I’ve included a couple of photos from visits with Sharon in 2023, including a favorite image exposed on film, ‘for posterity’, at the Norfolk, Massachusetts railroad station.

Sharon loved to read Tracking the Light and followed it daily on the Facebook feed.

RIP Sharon and thank you!
