Sheryl A. Johnson, 52, of Ephrata, passed away on February 14, 2026, at WellSpan Ephrata Community Hospital. She was born on January 25, 1974, in Baltimore, Maryland. She was the daughter of Jay and Helen Katz of New Jersey, and the loving wife of Jason M. Fusco.

For many years, Sheryl dedicated her time and talent as a bartender at Cheers in Manheim, where she built lasting relationships with patrons and colleagues alike. Her passion for service was evident in her generous spirit; she made it her mission to ensure everyone felt welcomed and valued. Sheryl's warmth extended beyond her professional life, as she truly loved her children dearly and doted on her two grandchildren, who brought her immense joy. Throughout her life, Sheryl was known for her loving, gentle nature and her unwavering care for those around her. Sheryl regularly attended Ephrata Community Church, where she continued to connect and show her unwavering love for others. In her leisure time, she indulged in crafting, finding joy and creativity in her participation in a craft club. Sheryl had a particular fondness for making wreaths, figurines, and wooden pieces. Additionally, she was a collector of "Mini Brands," a hobby that brought her delight and allowed her to share her passions with others. Her legacy of love and kindness will remain in the hearts of those who knew her, a testimony to a life well-lived and a spirit that will never be forgotten.

Sheryl is survived by her husband, Jason M. Fusco; her three children, Tyler Johnson, Austin Johnson, and Brittnee Boltz; her two grandchildren; and many siblings, all of whom will forever cherish her memory.

Services will be private to the family.
