Sherrie, I miss you so much. You were such an open, accepting and loving person. I couldn't help but go from just being your home health nurse to being a friend. It is difficult to go from seeing you a couple times a week to never seeing you again. I still find myself driving to your house... and then I remember... You were a true friend and your friendship will never be forgotten. I will forever cherish the love that you have shown me. I pray Angel is well taken care of. I know she misses you terribly, but I am glad you are finally reunited with Howard. Love you lady and God Bless.

Sherrie and I did not know each other a whole year, but I was quite fond of her and was so sorry to hear of her passing. I wanted to be a better friend to her, but God had other plans.

Love and will miss you Sherrie, Dorothy Gamble
