Dave and I had the opportunity to be with Sherrie the last week. She had such a keen mind. She never forgot anything. She has gone to the paradise that will make her whole. Always remember Sherrie and as she struggled this past month we always made sure it was all about her. I will miss seeing her at the store.

Sherrie was a very giving and loving person. I remember when she brought several Shawls she had been crocheting for many months down to the Heritage Care Center to keep the residence there warm in the winter. She was as excited to give them as they were to receive them. She was a great example of serving and sharing with others.
