Sherri loved spending time with her family and friends especially Christine, Heather, Carol, Other Shari and Jocelyn. They were very close and shared many good times, laughs, and friendship. They were there for her through her illness and she was happiest when they were with her. Sherri worked in the past for Maranacook School System, State Farm Insurance and then went to work for the State of Maine. Her latest was work was with the Department of Marine Resources as a Resource Administrator. Sherri loved her job at the department and all the people she worked with. She was very appreciative of all they have done for her since her journey with cancer started over a year ago and all the help given to her from everyone there. She spoke often of the people there and all that they did for her. Among many things Sherri will be remembered for her love of life and fun, her sense of humor, her loyalty, strong independent spirit, generosity, her kind words and heart, and her concern for all those around her. In the last year we can add to this grace, dignity, strength and courage unequalled. She will be missed always.
