Sherry McIntosh Obituary
A Victoria girl, predeceased by her father Russell, her brother Grant. Survived by her mother June, sister Sandi (Mike), daughter Jessica, son Patrick (Haley), stepdaughter Sarah (Bart), grandchildren Ariana (Makayla), James & Elliot, nieces Ashley & Nicole.
Sherry had an innate gift for drawing others in making everyone feel valued & included. She planted seeds of love, respect, & joy wherever she went. She was an absolute perfectionist & talented creative who immersed herself in many different artistic endeavours & in every case she produced such beautiful work. In her employed years she was always admired for the quality of her work & her pride in pushing the bounds of whatever she was faced with.
She was a social soul who found great joy & energy that was continuously fed by the richness she believed surrounded her & from which she was nurtured. She always wanted to be with others. She loved & was equally nourished by music: cue Prince. Music was a daily staple that helped balance her life.
Ultimately Sherry was a caregiver & a mom to us all. She was deeply spiritual & spent much time coming to understand her relationship with the gifts she was offered. She loved dragonflies & saw them as a form of spiritual messenger. She knew how to laugh, how to hold on tight to those she loved & cherished, & most of all she knew how to have fun.
I know those whose lives she touched will miss her in so many ways. Please know I was gifted with the most beautiful loving wife & life-partner one could ever imagine. After over 36 joy-filled years, I will miss her immensely. A friend reminded me that gratitude is at the heart of grief: Stuart.
The family asks all who knew & admired Sherry to take a moment & remember your friend in a way you deem most appropriate.

Oh, Stu. I'm so sad to hear of Sherry's death. She was taken too soon and she'll be missed. I've still got one of Sherry's candles; I'll light it in memory of her.

Stu:
From the time Sherry met you, we could see that you were what she´d been looking for all her life. You were what she needed to live her best, her ideal life.
