John and family.  Was so sorry to just learn of sherrill passing.  Brought up some fond memories of all through our school years.  And our church group.  We certainly enjoyed our time together!  Family is in my thoughts and prayers.  Love carla

The Nelson family were neighbors several decades ago. Our sympathy and prayers extend to John and Sherrill’s loved ones.

Frances Brown and family 

I am so sorry for this loss to the Nelson family and all who were recipients of her kindness and friendship.  I met Sherrill and John when I was 5 years old when they lived across the street from our family.  Sherrill remained friends with our family while we traveled around as an Air Force family. She was always there during our time of need and was considered one of our FUN friends!  I wish I could be with the Nelson family as they say their final goodbyes.  Sherrill will forever remain as ‘one of the good ones’ in my heart! 💙

So sorry to hear of Sherrill's passing.  She was such a ray of sunshine to everyone she met.  Daughter Kerry and my son Kevin were in the same highschool class at Ruskin so we had many interactions there and then danced a lot with her and John at the Shriners Temple.  I also enjoyed visiting with her at the floral shop in United Super where she created many lovely arrangements for customers.

My sincerest condolences to the Nelson family.  👪 May fond memories of your wife, mother, grandparent bring comfort to overcome your sorrow. 🙏

My sincere condolences to John and the Nelson family.  Sherrill and John were Co -Chief Aides for Kirby in 2015 at Ararat Shrine.  I loved her dearly.  Sherrill was a beautiful lady with a wit and charm about her.  She filled the room with kindness and love.  I will be forever grateful for her friendship and support.  Fly high sweet Sherrill.  Keep an eye on Kirby up there in Heaven.  Prayers for John 🙏🏼
