Those Shaver girls..they were true beauties. But more important than that, they had a kind spirit and a welcoming heart. Sherry had a mischievous way about her and loved nothing more than a good laugh, the kind that made her little eyes crinkle up and the tears begin. She was simply a good, decent person trying to navigate this storm we call life. Well done, my friend, and remember to save me a seat on the 50 yard line.
Mrs Sherry was a sweet Christian lady that I remember those years at Harris’s food store
