I have just now heard of Sherrie's sudden passing and am shocked and saddened by the news. Sherrie provided excellent professional service as a travel agent serving my company, Morgan Tire & Auto, while she was with American Express as well as BCD Travel. Every contact we had invariably included personal sharing, with loving mention of Maddie and the experiences they were having as a family. Sherrie, you will be missed!

January 28, 2013

Our heartfelt sympathies from Shirley Green and family....She was always so sweet and like a daughter to me, she will be sadly missed...Love to all,
Shirley Green and family

January 21, 2013

There were no words to express how sad I was to hear about Sherrie's sudden departure, but from the looks of her guest book she will never be forgotten. Maddie, you were the love of her life and she would want you to continue to live life as sad as it may seem at times. Always know she will be with you in spirit. Sincerely, Rose-Ellen Filthaut BAOE

My heart felt sympathy to the Hornsby/Mizerek family and especially Madison.
I had the privledge of working with your mom at Bridgestone (AE travel, then BCD). She was so excited when she found out she was expecting you. You were that gleam in her eye. As you know she loved you and you were her everything. I was blessed to have known and worked with her - always positive and upbeat!

Maddie I hope you will always know the love your mother had for you was like none I've ever seen. I never had a conversation with her where she didn't speak of you. Sherrie I consider myself lucky to have worked with you so closely for 6 years. Even though Sherrie lived hundreds of miles away you couldn't help but feel close to Sherrie. Her legacy is her daughter and the light and love she brought into the world daily.

Words just can't express the sorrow I feel for the loss of Sherrie.
