Sherry was a joy to work with at the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport. She was always so meticulous on Contract Documents and attentive to details. Sherry was very talented with the "art and crafts" and she enjoyed sharing her creations with us all. Sherry will certainly be missed by all. She was so young to go to be with the Lord. May God's peace be with her family.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Sherry was a joy to know and was so much fun. We finished school at Jackson Central in 1966. I wish her health had been better but God works in ways unknown to us. I will miss her e-mails and prayers for me and my family.

Sherry and I worked together for DFW Airport during her full tenure. She was part of a group of gals that got together each day for lunch. We shared many good times and laughter through the years. Her artistic abilities were enjoyed by many employees on the airport. Periodically she had little shows to display her latest creations and often was the time that she sold out and took special orders. I still have many of Sherry's creations in my home.
I have many fond memories of good times shared with Sherry. She was much loved and will be missed.
