What a beautiful person Sherry was. I had the honor and pleasure of meeting and singing with her while stationed at Comiso Air Station in Sicily Italy. She had the most gentle and sweetest spirit. Although it was over 30 years ago, some of our colleagues have reconnected and it hurt to learn of her passing. I don't know what took her from us way too soon, but I'm sure the family has fond memories of her as do I. May the Lord keep her memory warm and tender in our hearts. Blessings to the family.

Sherry was such a beautiful friend. I met her at my first Air Force duty station in Sicily (Comiso Air Station). I lost touch, and I recently came to learn of her passing while researching online. Sherry I love you, and will miss you my friend!!!
