Sherrylann Santo-Mills Obituary

Sherrylann SANTO-MILLS Sherrylann Santo-Mills Born in Tacoma, Washington on March 15, 1946, Sher passed away in her family home in Renton on August 6, 2010. She is preceded in her passing by son Darren Fredricksen and is survived by husband Greg, sons Marty Fredricksen, Jason Rick, daughter in-law Marissa Rick, Sisters Donna Froeber, Margaret Greaves, Cindy Sauriol, brother Roger Haydon. An exceptionally vibrant and caring creature, Sher had a fine career at The Boeing Company, ascending from the factory floor to a management administrative role serving Boeing's senior executives. Upon her retirement Sher and Greg lived in Wisconsin for 10 years, returning home this past fall to be with family. Her incredible courage, her humor and boundless compassion remain her greatest gift for all that knew her. In her larger view of life, She would have you see no color in your neighbor, harbor no ill will for what they believed, and willingly extend a hand to another, needing a hand up. Sher will always remain one of God's most beautiful creatures and is now, lovingly embraced in his care. Internment with son Darren, at Forest Lawn Cemetery in West Seattle. We love you Sherrylann.
