I worked with your Mom and found her to be such a great teacher in that she was kind hearted and quite intelligent. She was also a great colleague and a mentor to all the other teachers around her. There were many impacted by her dedication and are better for having her in their lives. She will be greatly missed and we will keep her and your family in our prayers.

Sherri's life was such an example of how to live a purposeful and loving mission for others. My friend, Sherri, demonstrated how to open her heart to so many family and friends that her life touched. I will miss her smile, but I am so grateful my life was blessed when I met Sherri. Pat Rathmann
