Our family will always treasure the wonderful memories we have with Sherry and the Esten Family. Sherry is our son Kyles godmother. Our kids will always remember the fun sleepovers they had at the Esten’s and how Sherry (and Ken) treated them to the best times! Sherry’s love for children shined brightly throughout her life. She has been a blessing to us for many years. She was a faithful servant of our Lord and can now rest peacefully in her Savior’s arms.
