It's been a long time since I last got together with Sherry. I'm saddened that I didn't find you sooner.

It is always tough to hear of the loss of friends and family. The memories of times past help keep us close to those God calls home...the knowledge that we will see them again in heaven keeps us going on until our turn comes.

I will always remember those wonderfully, crazy days of school. God bless, you are all in my prayers.

I have not seen Sherry in a long time, truly sad to hear the news. I still remember Riding to and from the Vo-Ed Center in her Black Volkswagon. My thoughts are with her family.
