What a blessing to have known Sherri & the way the Lord ordained our lives to cross. We were young mothers that lived across the street from each other & had many times of laughing, crying & our times of prayer together for our children. I praise God for Sherri & will look forward to see her again in our Heavenly Home. Love to Christi, Jeremy, Jon & Bill.
