Sherian was a beacon of kindness and grace in our workplace. Her warm presence and gentle spirit touched everyone she encountered.
Whether it was a quick hello in the hallway or a light-hearted moment in the break room, Sherian always took the time to connect with others. Her thoughtful words and sense of humor brought a joyful spark in our daily lives.
Sherian’s absence will be deeply felt by all of us. She leaves behind a legacy of compassion, warmth, and genuine human connection. We will miss her dearly and hold her memory close in our hearts.
While death may open the door to eternity, Sherian’s absence will be deeply felt by those she leaves behind—her beloved family at home and her colleagues at work. Kamal J D

We were sport moms, both of our boys grew up playing basketball together from small tots through their teen years! We shared a lot of time in the gym and became good laughing buddies!

Sherian and I first meet in kindergarten at F.L. Stanton Elementary School at the age of 5. Over the next 45 years of our friendship we shared a undeniable love and created a bond that can never be broken. Even though we didn’t speak every day we knew that we were only a.phone call away.
During our friendship the “The Justice League” was created as we shared travel trips, family growth, graduations, birthday celebrations and many more.
We just celebrated our 50th birthday celebration together with my birthday being Feb.1st and yours Feb 3rd. Only two days apart. I know its only two.days apart but it still makes me the oldest. A joke we laughed over amongst the “The Justice League “. We celebrated our 50th birthday weekend together with dinner, playing pool, and private dance sessions (pictures not included) and a evening with dance ( Boots on the ground).
You will always be loved, remembered and cherished.
