My Word during comments: Sherry we met when we were in 5th grade going to church St. School. The teach put us together to do a project. I asked you if you wanted to come to my house to work on the project and you said ” I have to ask my mother”. Your mom said “yes” and from that point on we became friends. After that I didn’t see you again until I moved to Neptune. You started dating George as you called him. From then on you became a part of our family. Just like a sister and daughter you became to be. I’ll never forget you and will cherish our memories. Sorry I couldn’t be there in person Sherry. Seems as these days is how it is. Anyway I Love You and RIP <3
What a beautiful service. Rest In Peace Sherry, my friend and family. Praying for peace for the family.
