In Loving Memory of Sharon Papaloukas

With deepest sorrow and heartfelt condolences, we announce the passing of Mrs. Sharon Papaloukas, beloved mother of Loukas Papaloukas (CPD-Retired), who passed away peacefully on Saturday morning.

Affectionately known as “Momma P,” Sharon was not only a devoted mother to her son, but truly everyone’s mom. She had a rare and beautiful gift—making every person she met feel loved, welcomed, and cared for. Her door was always open, her heart even more so. To so many, she was a source of comfort, guidance, and unconditional love.

Sharon remained caring, compassionate, more concerned for others comfort, and full of life even during her struggle. Even in the mist of it, she remains who she has always been graceful, loving, and more concerned about everyone else but herself. She fought a courageous battle with strength and grace, never losing her warmth or spirit.

Above all, Sharon cherished her role as a mother. Her son, Loukas, stood by her side with unwavering devotion to ensure she was comfortable and surrounded by love in her final days—a true reflection of the bond they shared.

Sharon’s legacy is one of love, kindness, and selflessness. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who were blessed enough to call her Momma P.
