In 1982 Sheri did a portrait of my father who died in 1979. Every time I look at it it is almost as if he is here ready to speak to me! Sheri brought out his personality in that portrait down to the twinkle in his eye! Sheri was a sweet wonderful lady who will be missed by all who knew her. We look to the heavens send her our love and blessings. Love Steve and Giny Nelson

We're so sorry to hear of your loss. We remember when our daughter babysat the girls while Nancy was going to Nursing School. What a beautiful and talented woman Sheri became and has left so many wonderful memories. May the Peace of God be with you all. Love, Jim and Rhoda Spero

Such sadness. Last time I saw you, we were in Junior High - listening to the radio and eating Doritos on the grass during lunch. Sleep sweetly, dear Sheri.

I am so sad to hear this news that Sheri has passed. We were friends many years ago. We shared teaching the exercise class, Justin and my son Nick played, we did a garden together one year and my last memories was when she was pregnant with the twins. Our lives changed and I hadn't seen her for years. I didn't even know she was ill. I am so sorry for your loss. She has always been in my heart with great memories and is where she will stay. I send my sympathies to her children and family. I will always remember your mom when she was full of life, love and always laughing. She was an amazing woman when I knew her.

Nan & Doug,
I remember all the stories about raising 3 girls. Wonderful family stories. I saw Sheri's art somewhere along the way. We send our heart felt sympathy to loving parents, and her loving sisters, Robin & Dionne.

I was very little when i knew you Sheri, but i remember you very clearly. You were and angel that walked this earth, there is no doubt about that. I will never forget the nights we spent camping, when you would braid my hair by the fire and sing while you did it. Just one of the many heart warming things you did to make others happy.
Love Kelsey

In 1986, Sheri did a portrait of my daughter and I in charcoals. To this day, it is a prized possession! Now, it is also a fantastic reminder of a beautiful and talented lady.

Fly free dear friend - your pain and suffering is over. I wish I could have been there when you needed me most - I will never forget you and your beautiful spirit. Until we meet again - Love you! XXOO
