Sherry continued to educate herself to improve the lives of herself and her children.  She had a caring heart and was determined to say at least one nice thing about everyone she met.  For many years she would bake cookies for the homeless.
 
She enjoyed writing poetry and painting.  She was a talented seamstress making many beautiful things for her family and home.  Sherry was also an avid genealogist, leading to extensive scrapbooking to make the family history come alive.
 
In her last years she furthered her spiritual knowledge and faith by her continued studies of the Bible.
