From the entire Roper / Hill family. We were saddened when we learned of our loss of Sherlyn. Our deepest condolences to Jerry, and the entire family. 2 Corinthians 5:8, says to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. We shall see her again.

Dear Dejuan, Jerry, and all of Whit's family, I never met anyone more fierce, stubborn, strong, and gentle than your mother. She faced every day with courage and determination, giving all of herself to care for others. I consider her one of the best friends I ever had. I am so sorry that you lost her. I know that a world without your mother is unimaginable. But she was your mother, and she poured her heart and soul into both of you. So you will never go a day on this earth without her influence, courage, determination, goodness, or love. She will always be with you. My condolences and deepest sympathies. With love, LeAnn
