Sherri worked at Strategic Imaging, a division of VGM, in Waterloo for 7 years and worked a total of 18 years at VGM; she considered her coworkers there a family. She attended Trinity Lutheran Church in Waterloo.

She enjoyed spending time at the cabin and being outdoors – whether it was enjoying nature’s beauty or time by her pool, hosting a party, swimming, and getting a tan. She had a love of sunflowers, flying kites, and casting her gaze to the sky to find shapes in the clouds. Sherri always appreciated the beauty in a rainbow or sunset. Friends and family were very important to her, especially her husband and daughter.
