Dear Thompson and Muehling families;

As a childhood friend of Sherri's son, Matt - I very fondly remember her seemingly infinite patience while witnessing us occassionally fumble in our efforts to mature into the men we are today. My deep sorrow accompanies all of you in the wake of her passing.

To the Family of Sherri Thompson Muehling
I am so sorry to hear about Sherri. Of course I will always remember her from the Lutheran Brotherhood days in Beatrice.
I remember her mostly on her wedding day as I did her hair. We laughed and laughed. I know how close of a family you all were and I know you will miss her dearly. May God wrap his arms around all of you at this very difficult time.

I knew Sherri from the Dept of Ed. We shared our "love" for the Atlanta Braves and often discussed them when we met in the hallway. She always had a smile and would give you her full attention when visiting with her. I will certainly miss her in the halls of NDE. You all have been and will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

I, too, worked with Sherri at the Dept. of Ed. She was very helpful when I struggled learning the ropes in our section of the dept. I remember her with great fondness.
