Sherry has been part of my life since about the age of six. She was my sister as far as I'm concerned. I'd stay at her and Ben's house so often as a teenager that I had my own bedroom. We'd shop just about every weekend or go to craft shows. Sherry would let me borrow her clothes and shoes, she taught me how to drive, and she was my matron of honor when I got married in 1983. Time has gone by way too fast and I just can't imagine Sherry not being with us anymore. I am honored to have been there to help in her last few months and to be with her in her last few hours. Sherry was a great sister-in-law and a great friend and will be missed. May she rest in peace now.

Dear Ben, Ted and family,
I am so sorry for our loss of Sherry. I'm remembering all the good times we shared together at our Pennsylvania homes and down at the Maryland and Jersey shores. Our motorcycle rides to the mountains with Sherry riding with Ben on his Harley Hard Tail will also never be forgotten.
May peace and love be with us all during this most difficult time. Godspeed Sherry
