Matt,
As your former teacher, I well remember your dad, a terrific fellow with a great sense of humor, who was always so supportive and proud of you. My heartfelt condolences to the entire Sherlach family.

To the Sherlock family. I am so sorry for your loss. I didn't know Mr. Sherlock very well. The one thing I did know is that he was a very loving father. May he rest in peace.

Loved Mr. Sherlach like a father. Both he and Mrs. Sherlach were such a positive influence in my life. I have many fond memories of times spent at their home. They will always be in my heart and in my prayers.
Wonderful people who will be missed. My love and sympathy to Bill, Bob and Matt.

Jay was a great person and someone I feel honored to call a friend. He was my principal at Greenvale school for years and a there was a great loss when he left. I will always remember him with the fondest of memories. I'm sure he is very happy to be with his sweet Pat.

Your Dad was a great guy. My daughter Sharon was at Camp Smith when it first started and your Dad was involved too. Would meet him and your Mom at Special Olympics Track and Field. He will be missed. Prayers for all of you.

My condolences to Bill, Bob, Matt and extended family. There is no man I admired more. I'm sorry I will not be here for services, as I will be in Texas. I never saw him when he didn't want to be remembered to my boys. He was a very special person and my love to you all. Verna

Losing Jay has left a void in the village of Pawling, and a void in the hearts of those who knew him. He made the world a better place.
Our sympathy to the family.
