I am so very sorry for your loss. I know Sherry as her Dad Keith and step mom Doris were my residents at Covenant Living. Sherry was so loving and compassionate to her Dad, and Doris. I can’t express my sadness in her homegoing, but know we will meet again. Prayers for your family. Nurse Connie Wysocki RN
