Sherry worked for over 35 years in Food Industry Management serving people, developing teams and always striving to become better. She was a diligent worker who put in years of hard work and devotion to better herself and her family.

Sherry was a dedicated mother and grandmother “Mimi” foremost. She treasured her children and grandchildren and embraced every moment with them. She was determined, stubborn, a bit spunky and always shot you straight with the truth.

Sherry was preceded in death by her parents, Elmer and Tanya Abney.

To My Family and Friends:

Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight in ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn’s rain. When you awaken in the morning’s hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circle flight. I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there. I did not die.

Memorial services for Sherry will be held at a later date.

Arrangements are under the direction of OK Cremation & Funeral Home, Oklahoma City, OK.
