Kellyann Sharp Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by John F. Pfleger Funeral Home, Inc. on Dec. 8, 2025.
Kellyann Sharp, 52, of Middletown, passed away surrounded by her loving family on December 5, 2025 at Riverview Hospital in Red Bank. She was born in Brooklyn on December 6, 1972 having lived in Red Bank and Middletown for many years. Kelly worked as Office Manager for Orthocenter in Red Bank.
Kelly was predeceased by her mother, Dolores Gattuso.
She is survived by her father, Salvatore Gattuso; her husband Michael Sharp; two daughters, Emily Wingler and Mattie Sharp; two sisters, Denise and husband Scott Heuer; Christine and husband Matthew Rotolo; her beloved nephews and niece, Tyler and Tommy Heuer, Ethan and Sienna Rotolo; In-laws Thomas and Jean Sharp; Tracy and Marty Pawlukanis and niece Haley Morey; as well as Aunt Carolyn Gilbert and Uncle Pat Gilbert amongst many cousins of whom she adored. Last but not least, her fur babies, Gunnar and Daisy.
Kelly loved relaxing on the beach with a good book and getting mani-pedis with her daughters. Going on the road for cheer trips with Emily brought Kelly so much joy. Kelly and Mattie shared a love of makeup and skincare. Cooking a nice Italian meal or simply enjoying a cup of coffee together with her dad was such a relaxing part of her day. She enjoyed decorating with her favorite sunflowers and absolutely loved the color pink. Watching Star Wars and Marvel movies with her family was a constant in her home. Kelly was a giant football fan. She loved the Jets and going with her husband to games. The Super Bowl was her favorite get together. She also looked forward to visiting upstate with her sisters and their families, where there were countless memories made. The Sister Day Tradition was something she always looked forward to. As a sister, she was there no matter what, always there to support through all of life's challenges. When it came to Kelly, nothing stood in her way. She was strong, independent, and made it clear she can do anything. Kelly loved fiercely. It was an honor if you were one of the lucky ones she called hers. Above all, she adored her girls.
Kelly was beloved by all and will be sorely missed.
Visitation will be held Wednesday, December 10, 2025, from 4-8 pm at John F. Pfleger Funeral Home, 115 Tindall Road, Middletown. Funeral services are scheduled for Thursday, December 11, 2025 at 11:00 am at the funeral home. Burial will follow at Bay View Cemetery, Leonardo.
