Wife - Daughter - Mother - Aunt & Mother-in-Law - Sherry L. Bowman


After taking a few moments to think back over the almost 5 years I have been around Ben's family. I have many memories that come to mind when thinking of his Mother - Sherry. She was wonderful while planning our wedding, She had the desire like any Mother-in-law would to help and be a part of our great day. While fighting the Lung cancer that was rapidly taking over her body she never said she was done. Like any mother would she kept fighting to get to see Ben get married.
The tough days really made Ben and I stop and think how short life can be sometimes. We were very thankful for the days that were good and the days that weren't the best, we sat by her bed side waiting and wondering if that was going to be the last moments we had together.
Like all things must come to an end on May 11, 2009 at an early 12:35am. We gathered to say our last good bye. We know now that she is enjoying the kind of life she wanted to enjoy!
Now we are ready to Celebrate her Life together with her family and friends.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held on June 6, 2009 at 11am - Cedar Creek Bible Church.
