Sherry Wilson Obituary
Sherry Lynn Wilson, 64, went peacefully into the arms of her Lord on February 1, 2026. She leaves behind a legacy of love, innocence, and joy.
Sherry was born on January 30, 1962, in Houston, Texas, to Royce and Barbara Wilson. She is survived by her father, Royce Wilson; her sister, Kathy Howard and husband Scott; and several beloved nieces and nephews.
Though Sherry faced challenges, she was blessed with a beautiful gift for connecting with others. Her warm hugs and contagious laughter could brighten any day. She deeply loved the Lord and her family and eagerly looked forward to her friends picking her up for church every Sunday.
Sherry found joy in coloring and crafts, all things Betty Boop and Laurel & Hardy, her baby dolls, and her collection of stuffed animals. She adored animals of all kinds, especially her birds and her beloved Yorkie, Higgins.
Her life was a testament to the beauty of the human heart, reminding us all that different does not mean less.
A graveside service for Sherry will be held on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. at Brookside Memorial Park, located at 13747 Eastex Freeway, Houston, Texas.
