Sheri was such a warm and happy person. I thought about her often. I loved visiting with her whenever I shopped Locketts years ago. I wish her peace.
When we were kids if anyone asked us who our mom was, we would reply “Mom” and “Shari”. I will never forget your booming voice, laugh and big hugs. As the director of the daycare I attended, she probably let me get away with more than I should have. Thanks for being the awesome best friend to my mom. Love you always, Ann
We will miss you and you were my favorite sister in law . I always loved coming over to her house when i was in my teenage years. She would do anything for you and she was always there if you needed her.i will miss you very much. Love becky
