I was a neighbor around 1976-77.-My mother was a Hauenstein. Sherry was a lovely lady and always welcoming. Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss.

Kenny, we just heard of Sherry´s passing and we´re so very sorry. Sending you and your family our deepest sympathy. I knew she had dementia the last time I talked to her. Phyllis Bosse contacted me about Sherry passing on Christmas. Rich & I moved from Texas to Georgia a year ago to be closer to our daughter as we had no family in Houston. I always called Sherry my brain because, whatever I would ask her about authenticating my home, she knew the answer. I will miss her but, she´s at peace.
