Sherry was a beautiful, groovy soul who had a kind caring heart. She was a friend to all and would give her last to help anyone in need. She loved caring for children and although she had no kids of her own, was a loving motherly figure to many.

Peep, as she was affectionately known, enjoyed the simpler things in life. She enjoyed animals, especially her pups, watching the snow fall, having long talks, searching for treasures, crafting, music and being together with family. She had a smile that would light up a room and a heart that was one in a million.

A Celebration of Sherry's Life will be held on Saturday, September 17, 2022 at 4:00 P.M. at Riddlesburg Bible Church with Pastor Ronald Forrester officiating. 

Arrangements by Akers Funeral Home, Inc., 299 Raystown Road, Everett, PA 15537.
