We know God has called home his most beautiful flower, and we are deeply saddened by her passing as she is much beloved. We love her so much.
Her "Pretty hair," “Don't' hurt the flowers,” “Don't hurt momma's hair,”, “I want some coffee” and especially “I love you” comments are already greatly missed. We miss our beautiful flower "Sherry Berry," but we are rejoicing because she has joined the most beautiful garden of them all, and she is the prettiest flower because she was hand selected by God.
Rest in Peace Sweet Sherry.
You will live forever in our hearts.
Love,
Your Peaceful River Family

My sweet Sherry, I miss your hugs and "I love you's" each morning. You were so sweet and made me smile so many times. You loved so freely and there was no doubt you knew that you were loved as well. You know I did all I could to keep you here, but God had another plan. And, as the preacher said at your service, You wouldn't want to return to those bonds that held you back here on earth. You are now without tears, pain or heartache and are in the presence of our precious Lord. I hope God has given you the "prettiest hair" in heaven. Felicia Pasko (Peaceful River DCS)
