Sher truly was incomparable…a standard all her own.
It has been a sincere privilege from our hearts to have her as a friend for so many years, she was loved and her passing will leave a void in our lives.
Our condolences to Dave, Todd, Chad, Troy, and all of her family, and others she touched.
Dave and Kel.

I first became acquainted with Sheryl through the Stephen’s Ministry. She was my caregiver and was so faithful in meeting with me. She had an infectious laugh. Cheryl would mount photographs from places she had been on a piece of cardstock with a verse on the back. I still have them on my dresser for encouragement. She will truly be missed. The whole family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Lisa Pewee
