I had the privilege of working along side Sheryl in Zohlmans(Phoebe Richland). She was so fun to work with. She loved the residents she cared for. There were many days we would pick up extra shifts together. We would always try to work the same wing together so we could be a team. She would often take me to her house but this was back when she lived in Allentown. She would make the best grilled cheese sandwiches for us, the secret ingredient she would put mustard on them. That is how I like my grilled cheese to this day. She would loved driving her red camero that she had with the windows down playing her favorite music. She loved to go to Pt Pleasant whenever she got the chance. She had the best smile and the best laugh. She had the gift to cheer you up. Her love language was helping anyone she could. She loved her family! I can’t wait to see her smile in heaven! She was a special angel in my life!

The heart of a parent shined in her and she relayed that to her siblings, and all that knew her.
Love her & hey Family. I will miss her greatly. Lucky to have sweet memories?
