Sherri left us way too soon; she was only 48 years old. She had so much love and life left in her and we were all recipients of it. All of her immediate family, extended family, friends and co-workers are devastated that such a bright light is gone from us.

Sherri leaves behind her husband Paul, sons Bryce and William, her mother Christine Penn (nee Bodnar), in-laws Carolyn (nee Walker) and Walter Snaith and her many relatives in Alberta, Ontario and the U.S.A.

Sherri was always a live wire and had a take charge personality. She brought joy into everybody’s lives she touched. As an Early Childhood Educator in the Toronto Catholic School Board, she was well loved by her co-workers and students. Sherri always loved children and was a great teacher. Her young students not only grew to respect her but they also grew to love her.

Sherri was such a warm and caring person and was one of those rare people who drew you in and wanted to be her friend. We all relied on her to organize us and she worked very hard to give her beloved boys and husband a warm and loving home. If you ever needed a hug, Sherri was ready to give you one.
Thank you to all those who have shared their stories of how Sherri touched their lives and how she made them smile.
