Sherry Smith Obituary In Loving Memory of Sherry Marie Smith
August 12, 1961 July 1, 2025
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Sherry Smith, a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend.
Sherry was a smart, strong-willed, and fiercely independent woman who touched the lives of many with her unwavering love and determination. She lived her life with purpose and grace, always putting family and friends at the center of her world. Her strength of character and sharp mind inspired all who knew her, and her warmth and compassion left a lasting impression on everyone she met.
She is survived by her three children, Travis (Macaela), Stephanie (Caleb) and Jessie (Max), her four cherished grandchildren, Walker, Hudson, Zoey and Wells, and her brothers, Tim (Mary) and Scott. Her presence in their lives was a constant source of strength, laughter, and unconditional love.
Though she has left this world, her spirit will live on in the hearts of those she loved and who loved her in return. She will be deeply missed but never forgotten. In lieu of flowers the family kindly requests you donate to a cause close to your heart. To plant a beautiful memorial tree in memory of Sherry Marie Smith, please visit our Tree Store.
