This will be our first class reunion without Sherry. She will be truly missed. We could always count on Sherry to keep us grounded and keeing everything real. Sherry had no problems telling any of us how she felt about any issue. May God continue to watch over Sherry and her family.

Hello my friend. It's hard to believe I won't see you at our 30th year reunion. I can't imagine not seeing those bow-legs walking across the floor in those high heels and your head held high with that smile spreading from ear to ear for no reason other than it's just you. I miss you, Sherry. I know you'll be checking us all out October 9th and 10th and wishing you were here.....you will be.....always and forever!
