Dear Sherry, I have known you for a long time and I can honestly say you're the best person I have ever known. Those words are not said out of grief, or the sorrow of your passing, those words are the truth. I believe everyone who knew you felt the same way. You were always a lady of quality and decency with a superior and giving heart. Heaven is a better and brighter place with you in it. Those of us who are left here without you will always love, honor, cherish, miss, and remember you for the rest of our lives. I feel I was blessed to know you and I thank God for that. Out of respect for you I close not with my given name, but the nickname you gave me so many years ago. Rest in peace Dear Sherry. Forever your admirer. Shaggy
