Sherry was a member of the Beauty Church of Christ. She loved the Lord and her family and her favorite place to be, was at home with them all gathered together. Sherry and Don were married on April 5, 1975, at the Church of Christ in Prestonsburg, KY. They had a love that was pure and beautiful. They had been together for 50 years.

Sherry had a smile that would light up any room, breathtaking, and a heart that was full and selfless. Her hobbies included crafting, planting and growing beautiful flowers, and shopping for deals. She could make something amazing out of the least little thing. She loved to sing, dance and play her keyboard. She taught us children to respect and be kind. She also loved teaching her son Grayson how to read, spell, and write. She told us all we could be anything in life if we worked hard and believed in ourselves. She believed in all of us. She fought her sickness for over three years and stayed so very strong until her last days. When the doctors said it was unheard of, she proved them wrong. Sherry was an inspiration to everyone and will never be forgotten. Her love will always keep us whole.
