Our deepest condolences to you and all your family.
My apologies for not attending services (due to illness).
Your mom was a lovely wonderful woman and will be missed by many.
Amy – remember this – “There are 2 things in this world that will never abandon you – the eyes of God which will always watch over you and the heart of your mother, that will always be with you”.
May happy memories ease your pain.

Johnsons and Stahls friends and family. So sorry for your loss. We love ya and offer our prayers. Sending you our love. RIP Sherry.
There are no words to ease your pain or fill the void you are feeling. Always enjoyed her FB shares with pictures of family fun. My dad, Warren May, loved working in the meat dept. at Long’s (West’s) with Pauline and Sherry became part of the church Serendipity Grp. who helped guide my mother [Cora Mae] through her grief upon Warren’s death. She truly was one of God’s earthly angels who has become a heavenly angel. Hold tight to your memories. Cry as needed, laugh often,, and remember her with love.
I AM SO SORRY THAT YOUR MOM PASSED AWAY, ERIC AND THAT I NEVER HAD A CHANCE TO MEET HER….HUGS TO YOU, JANELLE AND THE KIDS FROM AUNT BARB.
Livonia has lost a caring, loving soul. We will miss her greatly.Deepest condolences to her family.
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I have so many fond memories of growing up next door to the Johnsons. Sherry always seemed happy. We’ll miss her.
Sherry – A kind, fun and caring friend … at peace.
Sending sympathy, and prayers to family and friends.Blessings,

When I got in my car this morning, I happened to glance at the freshly mown lawn. I thought to myself, there were violets growing there not that long ago. I wished I had taken the time to take a closer look and inhale their subtle aroma.
Too Late Now
Not long ago, sweet flowers were seen…violets in amongst the green.
But now, there’s only close-cut grass.No scent delightes me as I pass.
If I had known their time was brief,maybe, I would feel less grief
because I would have spent more hoursappreciating those wee flowers.
I still would miss them, but they’d beimplanted in my memory.
Sherry,
I enjoyed our time at “Sewing.” Being together in a group of ladies who were such an important support system when our kids were little was – and is – a blessing. In those Linden Street Days, we actually did sew a bit.The present meetings at Little Lakes are more accurately “Coffee” gatherings. I am glad I stopped at your house for a one-on-one, in depth discussion. It was delightful! I had intended to stop in on a more regular basis, but it is too late now. You are gone.
Your friend and former neighbor,Beth
P.S. Say hi to Bruce.
My advice to everyone: Time passes so swiftly. Makes memories while you can.
My heart aches for all of Sherry’s family and friends. Having worked with her for so many years at school, I saw just how special she was – with all of the children but with her colleagues as well. What a wonderful person who will be so missed.
Wishing you all peace.
