We were so saddened to hear of Shearman's passing.

I sure will miss Ole Sherman. He was always up to something. Any time he would come by the office he would give us the rest of the day off and a raise. Of course he didn't work there, but he would say it and make us all chuckle. Ill miss those moments the most. Prayers for the family. Susian Walker

My condolences to the Copley family and friend.

Sherman will truly be missed. When I met Sherman about 40yrs. ago, I realized he was one of those people who never meets a stranger, has a great since of humor and loves to smile and make others smile. We knew when that big van pulled up on poker nights, it was about to be a lot of laughs. Sherman really loved being around people!! I had car trouble in Bowdon one night, he went right outside without hesitation, fixed the problem and refused to let me pay him anything. Now that's a person who sincerely cares. Rest well Sherman, you will live on through the memories of everyone who had the pleasure of knowing you! Sherry Goodwin
