Not sure what to say?

Sherri, I will miss you. You were not only my Sister-in law but you were a friend as well. And someone that I could talk to when I needed someone to be there. I always laugh and told everyone that when I married Pam that you were my second wife that we allways went everywhere and did things as a family which I always enjoyed. We had alot of good times together and those times will miss very much. Rest in peace. Love Alan

IM really sorry to hear about your mom i only met her once and she was amazing she was so nice to me and she was s o sweet she will always be missed
i wish you and your family the best and im here for you.

I am so saddened by Sherri's death, but at the same time am glad to know that she is home with Gram. She is no longer suffering and that is great. I have moved to Florida and have not seen Sherri in many years, but I hope she knew that I loved her very much. I lived with her, worked with her, was pregnant with Keli at the same time she was pregnant with the twins. Sherri and I shared alot. We had some good times together. She will be missed. But the day will come when we will see her again,...

She was my baby sister first then she became my best friend and my confidant. I miss her already so much, I don't know how many times I have tried to call her and have thought I've heard her talking and asked Alan where she was. I love her and look at her pictures all the time and it is really hard that she is not here.

My mommy was an amazing person. She really meant everything to my family, and all of her family, which didn't just include us, but all of HDK too. My mom will be missed, alot. Everyone knows that already, but all we can do is remember how great she was to all of us. She would want us all to be together now in our time of grief. She always wanted the family to be, well, a family. She loved us all, and instead of tears, she would want to see smiling faces. We all know that she is watching over...

My mother enjoyed working at Hot Dog King and it became a constant part of our lives very rearly on. I want to thank everyone who came to her memorial and to those of you who remembered her and wrote here. I was so glad to see so many people at the service. It made it possible for me to smile that day.
Mom we will never forget you. I know i cetainly won't. I will miss you everyday and even though i grieve I will remember the last thing you said to me. Those words will always be in my...

Pam and the entire family,
We were so sorry to hear about Sherri. I had no idea she was sick. It's been a while since we had seen her. I remember you and especially Sherri over the years working at Hot Dog King. Steve and I always went on Friday nights,we'd always see Gus and Sherri. We continued going for years after our Daughter was born, until we moved to York Co.Then it became a real treat.
I know you all will miss her, so will all of the people she served for years. We'll miss...

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...

Sherri had already worked at Hot Dog King 10 years before I got there even though she was only 5 years older than me I always looked up to her. She taught me how to waitress and alot of other things too.I remember she loved to do crossword puzzles and word games and in the morning when she would come to open the restaurant she would come earlier than need be so she could listen to her christian music and take her time and do it right and usually end up doing the 10am. girls work cause they...
