Sherry Buckner Beal, 55, of Ramseur, passed away on Friday, August 8, 2025 after a courageous battle with cancer.

A Celebration of Life Service will be held at 3:00 PM on Tuesday, August 12, 2025, at Kildee Church in Ramseur, where Sherry was a member. Pastor Robby Dilmore will be officiating, with the Eulogy by Rev. Doug Armstrong. The family will receive friends following the service in the fellowship hall.

Sherry was born in Chatham County on June 30, 1970, attended Silk Hope School and graduated from Jordan Matthews High School in 1988. Following graduation, she attended Central Carolina Community College and achieved her Associates Degree as a Registered Nurse. Sherry had a heart for loving and helping people through healthcare as evidenced by her twenty-seven years of service in the Chatham Hospital Emergency Room and Operating Room, Hospice of Chatham County, as well as Piedmont Health Services in Pittsboro.

Sherry loved her family and was a devoted wife, mother, sister, daughter and friend to everyone around her. She had a calm and encouraging spirit and was always most joyful with a fishing pole in her hand. Sherry enjoyed being at the beach, sitting on the pier as well as lending a helping hand on the family farm. Sherry was preceded in death by her father, Robert Earl Buckner as well as her in-laws, Aubrey Clyde and Sarah Burgess Beal.

Survivors: husband of thirty years Michael Beal, daughter Ashleigh Beal of the home, son Robert Beal of Ramseur, mother Teresa T. Buckner of Siler City, sister Leslie Culberson and husband Tracy of Siler City, brother Kevin Buckner and wife Annette of Siler City, sister-in-law Marie Greene and husband Brian of Pineola, nieces, Hannah Culberson, Camryn Greene Curtis (Harrison), Aubrey Greene, and nephew, Alan Culberson.
