I only knew her from Hallmark but I still think about her often. I miss her bubbly personality and she had such a great smile and would always ask about my family. She left way too soon and so tragically. I hope the family has found some peace. She was awesome.

Please accept my deepest sympathies. Sherri was an incredibly intelligent, kind and generous person. I always admired her. I have found comfort and understanding beyond my fond memories of Sherri in the sure knowledge that I have that she has gone home to that God who created her and that she is surrounded there by more love than those of us left behind here can comprehend and I look forward to that day when all will be made right for you and her.

To Sherri's children,
I know you had an amazing mom. Smart (so smart!), talented, and so determined! I went all through junior high and high school with Sherri, I think we had almost every class together. When I think of her now I realize she taught us how to find joy every day, and to celebrate everything that life offers. She was a wonderful spirit and through you has left a beautiful legacy. We'll never forget her!

I am so sorry for the loss you must now feel as Sherri's much loved children. It has been many years since I have seen Sherri but the picture you have chosen reminds me well of the joy in her face and heart. My hope is that you will always know how wonderful your mother is, that she meant much to so many and that I am sure she loved her children above all. My thoughts are with you.

Sherri was the personification of love and light. I am so grateful to have been able to know her, if even for a short while. I've never seen anyone light up with such pleasure when talking about chickens as she did...they were some of my favorite conversations with her!
I pray for a peace that surpasses all understanding to envelope her family now and until you meet again. May God hold you gently in His loving arms.

I am absolutely shocked and sadded to hear that Sherri is gone and way too young. I worked for A. & H Hallmark for 16 1/2 years and knew Sherri then. She was always so sweet and kind, cheerful, and so helpful. She knew everything about Hallmark and was such a good Manager. I worked at the Bellis Fair Store in Bellingham. She drove up to help us quite often and I talked to her on the phone a lot. I'll always remember her smile, friendliness, and bubbly personality. My sympathy goes out to her family. What a tragic loss to all who knew and loved her!. God Bless Sherri! Cheryl Nolte

I was so very shocked and saddened to hear this last week! I had a locker right next to Sherri's one year in high school...she was continually cheerful, upbeat and would always compliment me on something-which I was always amazed by because I didn't necessarily feel it was deserved...I had just thought of her again not long ago, which made me smile inside at the memory! I feel so blessed to have known her, but so sorry I will not see her again in this life! God Bless Sherri, her children, family and loved ones...<3

Sherri's contagious smile and warm friendly personality will be missed. I felt blessed when she was at work, anticipating her cheerful greeting for so many years at Hallmark. I considered her a friend. I know she was a great mother for we had shared many loving stories about our children. She was there for me as a grief counselor when I lost my sister. She was a remarkable woman who has left us entirely too soon. Goodbye Sherri.

Oh my goodness, I am so shocked. I just spoke to her a couple weeks ago at Hallmark, we joked about how long we've "known" each other with my coming into Hallmark all the time. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends.

Natasha ~ the loss of a parent is something a child will never quite get over. But I promise that as time passes and you think of her you will have more smiles than tears. Unfortunately in our little family this is something that we are all familiar with. Just know that we all understand your pain and are here for you.
