Sheri Dirks Obituary

Visit the Leaf Cremation - Columbus website to view the full obituary.

Sheri was an excellent mother to a grown son and daughter. She had two loving sisters and six grandchildren and four great grandchildren. She had nieces and nephews and a host of other family who loved and adored her. Sheri loved shopping and eating out and loved to go to the movies with her sister. Sheri had such a hard work ethic and instilled that in her children. She had worked for years with kids in the public school system and also with the elderly as a long time nursing assistant. Sheri loved keeping up her yard with beautiful flowers and houseplants. Sheri loved all of our crazy get together’s and enjoyed playing cards with the family. Sheri passed at her home surrounded by her family members who stayed by her side until her time to be with her Heavenly Father. Mom was so loved and we miss her dearly. We think about her every day and know one day we will all see her again.
