UPDATE FROM SHARON: I thought I should send out one last update just to let you all know that the services went very well, Sherry looked so beautiful, as always.
She looked very much at peace and looked very much like herself in her gorgeous pink dress that she picked out herself. She had a beautiful arrangement of pink carnations covering her casket. Doug said she had so many flower arrangements at the funeral home, her family didn't know
most of the people who sent them. I told him more than likely it was her internet family and he was in agreement with that. She was loved dearly by many wonderful, caring and thoughtful people. She was layed to rest on Thursday. God Bless her sweet soul. For those of you who sent floral
arrangements and sympathy cards to her loving family, I would just like to say in behalf of her family, thank you so very much from the bottom of their hearts. They know they were sent with much love, Prayers and deepest condolences. I would also like to say thank you so very much for standing in Prayer with one another for Sherry throughout her illness, I know that meant so much to her. Believe me, she knew you were all Praying for her and sending your love and keeping her in your thoughts.
You have all been wonderful friends to Sherry, she had a very special place in her heart for each and every one of you, but you already know that, don't you. Sherry will be missed by many and will never be forgotten, she has a place in our hearts, too, and it is there that her
memory will live on forever.

May Sherry Rest In Peace...May She Live in God's Everlasting Life. May
She Dance Among The Angels For All Eternity..Amen.

Sorry I took a couple days to write, I hope you understand.

God Bless each and every one of you.. May He keep you all safe always.

Take care.. Love in Christ,

Sharon
