I'm so sorry to hear about Sherry's passing. I worked with Sherry at the Rehab center years ago and hung out with her. She was always so much fun and had a great laugh!! I was lucky to run into her again after so may years this past Christmas and the way I recognized her after all those years was her great laugh and smile. Heaven has another angel. My thoughts are with her family and all those close to her.
