Sheri,
Oh lord lady I don't know where to start. I just talked to you a little less than two weeks ago, and you lifted my spirits on my upcoming issues. You always seemed to have a way to understand my insanely crazy self and I will forever love that about you.
Have to say best memory that I shared with you was Vegas. We both thought my mom would never last..hahaha she showed us.
Through all of this I know you wouldnt want tears, sorrow, pain or suffering, so I figured since I cant make it back the Des Moines, I will have a nice cold bud light in remberance of you mama!
Luv you deerly, and hope your family and dearest friends, are doing ok.
I'm gonna Miss You Lady,
Love You!

Dear Gary, Kyle, Kacey, Chelsea ,Chrystal, Lola & Mark & Connor,and to all Sheri`s family and friends,
I enjoyed Sheri`s company and shared many,many fun stories with her over the 20 plus years when I did her hair. I am shocked today as I read about her passing in the newspaper.
I know she loved her family so much as we talked about them as her children were growing up. I also had the pleasure of doing their haircuts. She often talked of Lola & Mark & Conner, as that is how I came to know Sheri. I have never met her friends, but I know she also loved them and told me about many fun times going out and to the yearly party at the farm. She would come to the salon on her motorcycle with her hair wind blown and sun bleached and I would give her a new do. We would talk and laugh for a couple hours. I will miss her visits and her laugh and think of her fun loving spirit and thoughtfulness and always being there helping others. My thought and prayers are with her family and friends.
With loving memories, Kay Acheson

Lincoln family and all the others that loved Sheri,
I have so many good memories of Sher, playing softball with her and Gary, our kids playing together driving us crazy, nights at the racetrack, days of shopping and in 93 sandbagging !!! I will always cherish those times that we had, the light she brought with her where ever she sent and that infectious laugh !!!
RIP Sheri.....you will be missed greatly.

Dad, Kyle, Kasey, Chrystal and Sis,
We will get through this together as a family and we will remember Sheri for all she meant to us, did for us, and most all the way she could make us smile and laugh even on the toughest days and through some of the most difficult times we have all faced. We were truly blessed to have had her in our lives.
Love,
Angie

Sheri,
There are lights in the world and you were one of the lights.
I have no idea how to live without you but somehow we will go on...we know you would want us to be strong.
We will love and watch over your babies and your grand-baby. We know you will be their guardian angel.
I see a white house, the door is open to let you in and waiting for you are Mom, Grams and Jacob and all of our loved ones. Someday you will greet us.
We love you, we will miss you with every breath we take.
My cousin, my sister.
Love,
Lola
