My heart felt condolence goes out to Mr. Weeks and his family! I had the pleasure of meeting and speaking to Sheryl, she was a very sweet person! I would always joke with her about keeping Richard, he comes to our unit for dialysis, I fell in love with Richard from day one, Sheryl, she would always tell me “Her quote, she would say and you can’t have him” Lol! RIP, Miss Sheryl!?
Sheryl always saw the best in people. Richard you and Sheryl were a loving couple and you took such good care of her when she had so many physical problems to deal with. You had some wonderful memories. We’re thinking of you and your grown sons as you grieve for Sheryl. Betty & Nick
