She was born on Nov. 29, 1938, to Lawrence and Ruth (Eblen) Edwards in Austin, Minnesota. She was raised near Austin and graduated from Austin High School in 1956. Deanna was united in marriage to William G. “Bill” Sherman on April 19, 1958, at St. Augustine Catholic Church.

Throughout the years, she shared her talent of cooking while working at the Windmill Restaurant near Dexter and the Grand Meadow Nursing Home. On routine visits to Mayo Clinic’s hematology division, Deanna always welcomed the staff and doctors with a double batch of peanut butter cookies.
