She was very social, loved dating & dancing (In early years would cause fender benders to meet guys)
She said Prom's we're her favorite! She loved the dresses, hair, and the guy's treating her like a princess.
And Sherrie definitely pulled that off, she was beautiful!
She liked to snow & water ski, camp, and most of all loved animals "especially dogs"
There's "Guys & Dolls" and then there's Sherrie. "Guys & Dogs"!
Sherrie was a very caring friend, sister & daughter. Sherrie lovingly & gently cared for our Mother Shirley; as she struggled with "ALS" and passed in late December of 2011. Sherrie's heart was deeply tender towards others.
Sherrie was fortunate to be near so many family and friends. Bobbie her younger sister, Terry and Rob her two brothers, sister-in-law, Aunts, Uncles, Nephews, Nieces, Cousins and Many great friends.
