Sheri was an LPN, who was a recipient of a Notable Care and Compassion Award, among one of several awards she received. She worked her entire career at St. Joseph's Manor until retiring in 2014. Sheri loved her patients and went above and beyond for many of them. Sheri's patients loved her just as much.

John and Sheri enjoyed going to Myrtle Beach every year in May for their anniversary and spent hours upon hours walking the beach, looking for shark teeth. She collected hundreds over the years.
